The magic of fall is in the air, the time of year when shorter days and cooler nights spark the imagination and stimulate feelings of nostalgia and comfort. Here in Rutherford county nestled in the Blue Ridge Foothills, you can discover the brilliance of this season in a variety of different ways.
Experiences
Visit during the spring and enjoy the early burst of color or spend some time with us over summer vacation; rent a lake house, take a boat tour, hike a trail, or attend a festival. Prefer to travel in the fall, take a scenic drive on country roads lined with rich hues of red, orange and gold or see it all up close by exploring one of our many trails or parks that reward those that choose to hike. Just make sure you don't count us out for winter travel because we have one of the best light displays in the country, not to mention hometown Christmas parades that make you feel like you've traveled back in time. Choose your adventure and we will see you soon.
