My wife and I had our honeymoon in Banner Elk, which is 2 seconds away from Boone. The whole area, Boone, Blowing Rock, Lenoir, and Banner Elk is incredible. It had that small town cozy feeling, with unlimited things to do. We talk about Boone and how we would love to go and start our family there. They have gem mines there, and if you never mining ...

There is also Grandfather Mountain, Linville Caverns, Horn in the West outdoor drama, Blowing Rock, Mystery ...

Love This Place!

Also during ...
