What is it about Christmas that stirs our memories? Certainly, memories overflow when we gather with those we love, especially as we remember those who are no longer with us. Perhaps the annual rituals of the season, like venturing to the mountains to choose a live Christmas tree or searching through a shoebox filled with heirloom ornaments that have adorned your family’s trees for generations, conjure tales from long ago. It’s likely, too, that our holiday memories include exceptional moments, like taking your child to visit Santa for the first time or watching snowflakes paint a picturesque scene on a rare, white Christmas. ...read more

In the days after September 27, 2024, highway information signs were emblazoned with a message... Do Not Travel in Western North Carolina. That sounds ominous, but its message was not overstated. Because of the tireless work by state and federal employees, local folks, and thousands and thousands of volunteers, the mountains are OPEN – including two lanes of Interstate 40 – and we invite you to vacation... And volunteer! ...read more

Even before we bought the Mast General Store, we were taken by the beauty of Valle Crucis. We’ve heard people describe the drive out Broadstone Road as traveling through a time portal. In the 1970s, fields in the river bottoms would be filled with tobacco, cabbage, or high with hay to feed cattle that were grazing in the summer pasture. ...read more

The Town of Waynesville is named for notable Revolutionary War General Anthony Wayne, who earned the moniker “Mad Anthony,” but there’s no description further from reality for this pleasant mountain retreat. If the label given to its namesake – the same General Wayne of Fort Wayne, Indiana, and Wayne National Forest – applies at all, it’s how “madly” locals and visitors alike fall for Waynesville’s beauty. ...read more

In the early days of automobile travel, a loose association of chambers of commerce, boards of trade, and cities came together to jointly advertise the beautiful scenery found along an auto trail pieced together from Quebec, Canada, to St. Petersburg, Florida, and then on to Miami. Part of this trail runs down King Street in Downtown Boone, which used to sport several motels capitalizing on the Black Bear Trail name. ...read more

Asheville transformed from a pioneer outpost into a resort city within a century of its founding in 1797. By the late 1800s, people flocked to this Western North Carolina destination to take in the fresh mountain air, go horseback riding, hiking, or picnicking, and enjoy the luxurious accommodations of the Grove Park Inn and the Battery Park Hotel. During this era of booming growth, one of the wealthiest and most famous Americans of his time, George Vanderbilt, constructed the palatial Biltmore Estate as a “summer home” in Asheville. It remains the largest – and among the most opulent – private residences in the United States to this day. ...read more

Fall is when the stories we’ll tell the rest of our lives arise from the joys we share with family and friends. It’s when our senses are invigorated by the crisp air and rich colors surrounding us. It’s respite from the heat of summer and peace of mind before the chill of winter. Fall is a season best lived in the moment so memories aren’t recorded but felt. ...read more

In the fall, we typically celebrate the harvest, the last warm days before winter makes its presence known, the colorful fall leaves, and the sense of community coming together. This year, we have many more reasons to revel in fall’s grandeur with the return of fall festivals and the restoration of homes, roads, and towns in the mountains of Western North Carolina and East Tennessee. ...read more
