Scenic Drives and Day Trips
Located at the heart of Western North Carolina, Haywood County is the ideal locale for a getaway. Centrally situated to all that the region has to offer, setting up “base camp” at one of the more than 180 accommodations in the relaxing atmosphere of Maggie Valley, Waynesville, Canton, and Clyde puts you only minutes away from dozens of attractions and activities. Take a short drive east to visit “America’s Largest Home,” the Biltmore—a majestic 250-room French chateau, along with its renowned gardens and winery, set on 8,000 acres. Or try your luck at Harrah’s casino by heading west to Cherokee, where the entertainment ranges from the tradition and culture of Native Americans to some of today’s most popular musical acts.

It’s a great way to catch up with your friends, with perhaps a bit of competition mixed in.
Gallery Tours
With a dozen-and-a-half art galleries and studios all within a few blocks of each other in downtown Waynesville, it’s easy to enjoy the creativity that flourishes in such an awe-inspiring landscape. A gallery tour reveals the diversity of art produced here, from traditional pottery to modern sculpture, from mountain landscape watercolors to contemporary paintings. Walking from gallery to gallery is a great way to enjoy the atmosphere of downtown Waynesville.
