Things To Do

Nature & Hiking

Winchester Creek Farm

Farm tours here are fun! The mini farm is full of mini farm animals from llamas to alpacas, mini horses, goats and more.

Paradise Falls Trailhead

Wow! Breathtaking swimming holes on the edge of a cliff. The hike down is fine, but the hike back is a bit rough, despite being only a half mile. It's a wonderland and also a bit dangerous, so if your traveling with kids, think twice.

Cataloochee Valley - Elk Watching

If you get lucky, you'll catch them walking around Cataloochee Valley or even hanging out in Maggie Valley or Cherokee in any open field or neighborhood. We always spot them at the start of sunset, never at any other time.

The Rattler

Buckle up! 300 turns in 30 miles and we're actually located on it, so you'll ride it no matter what!

Blue Ridge Parkway

We rode the parkway on our first 10 day road trip together. This was when we fell in love. If you haven't done this before, make sure you do while you're here. The views are stunning.

Addison Farms Vineyard

This is a family owned business- the natural wine selection is delicious and so is the mountain top view and the pizza from the food truck. A relaxing experience. Check their schedule before you head out because hours can be funny. And if you want a wine tasting you can schedule it on their website.

Sunburst Falls

Go fishing for trout or jump in the swimming hole under a waterfall! Plenty of spots to make a picnic as well.

Max Patch

This is an easy 1.5 mile loop with a top of the mountain 360 view! It's stunning. Take photos, take a deep breath of fresh air or make a picnic. It's about 30 minutes from Six Fields - 15 minutes out and then 15 minutes up a mountain.

Soco Falls

Park your car and be alongside this powerful waterfall in 2 minutes; no hiking required. Take a swimsuit with you!

Courthouse Falls

This is a hard 4 mile out and back hike, but it has an epic waterfall. This is where Donato takes his students for torture and cold exposure. Note: Courthouse falls via summer cove trail. Ask me what happened here the first time we went, it was memorable to say the least.

Lake Junaluska

A very pretty and scenic walk around the nearby lake. This is not a hike, just a pretty walk. Pop in to Crepe & Custard for a delicious crepe. 15 minutes from Six Fields.

Food & Drinks

Mad Anthony's Taproom & Restaurant

Awesome taproom, pizzas, salads & wings! Great vibe and Priscilla's favorite spot for a salad, a pizza, and a beer. It's what we do to reward ourselves for a hard week of work.

The Scotsman Public House

Another fave! Great food and all around atmosphere. We know the whole staff here. Try the shepherd's pie or the fish and chips! And if you like porters, the Balsam Porter.

Orchard Coffee

Our cafecito spot! And award winning latte art!

Singletree Heritage Kitchen

P & D's date night spot <3

Haywood Smokehouse

If you like BBQ, they do it right! Winners of the best brisket in the US and Canada. P.S. The ribs are insane.
