The town serves as the eastern gateway to The Crooked Road: Virginia's Heritage Music Trail, as well as the 'Round the Mountain Artisan Trail, which are great opportunities to experience the arts & culture of the region.
Just under an hour away, Roanoke makes for a great day trip. Tons of restaurants, breweries, and things to do. We also really enjoyed visiting and exploring Black Dog Salvage.
