Located 30 minutes from Sylva, the Nantahala Outdoor Company offers many outdoor adventures for all levels of enthusiasts, including zip lining (a Staley favorite!), white water rafting, stand up paddle boarding, train excursions, hiking, and aerial adventure park!
Sylva is a 1-hour drive away from downtown Asheville. With incredible restaurants and breweries, Asheville is a great place to spend the day with something for everyone. A couple of our favorite places include Buxton Hall BBQ, Curate, and brunch at the Blue Ridge Room in the historic Grove Park Inn!
For the ultimate in relaxation (and a little luxury), the Grove Park Inn houses a phenomenal spa for an all-day experience in Asheville. There is also a golf course on the resort property with amazing views. Try the Blue Ridge Room's morning brunch....a love of both the Staley and Yoder families!
Just around the corner from the Best Western is the Dillsboro River Company! This is a local river company that offers rafting and tubing excursions. Super easy access for wedding guests staying in our hotel blocks. Enjoy a morning on the Tuckasegee River before the wedding events and experience beautiful Sylva!
