This site is a wonderful experience as it includes the Graham homestead, a building housing displays of key events in Rev. Graham's life and a good dairy bar that is perfect for lunch. The grounds offer some nice walking paths as well. Amazingly there is no charge to visit and this is a great place to spend a couple hours.

We have been coming here for five years as a couple, and I came as a solo traveler for two years before that. Spring Gathering is a chance to connect with other artists while focusing on your own project for an uninterrupted week. I’m a quilter; he’s a writer. We LOVE it here! It’s not for the luxury seeker, nor for the fussy. It’s for people who want to connect with their thoughts in the loveliest mountain surroundings imaginable.

Teresa Smith was very helpful to me when I contacted her about needing access to a printer on my vacation to Maggie Valley. She went out of her way to help me find someplace to print my departure plane boarding pass and even offered to meet me at the Chamber, on a day when it was closed, just to print my pass for me. Super service. Maggie Valley has the best people! Thanks, Teresa.

I stop in here every year with my sister when she visits and I'm always surprised. You would think it would be all the same information but they stay up to date with current businesses. Even though I live here I always find something new I'd like to go do! The staff is always very friendly and often you walk out with a souvenir! I highly recommend coming here just to see all the information booklets they have!

The Blowing Rock Community Library

Book Sales. Old time charm. The Community Library is located on the corner of Main Street and Park Ave., adjacent to the Town Hall. The beautiful stone structure was built in 1949. Inside, the library sports warm wood paneling, iron chandeliers, and stone fireplace. There are many reference books on local sights, history, and architecture. You will seemingly go back in time as the library still uses the multi-drawer manual card catalog (can you find the rotary phone?). Be sure to check out the whimsical children's section. The locals will tell you one of the library's best features: a continuously running BOOK SALE of gently used hardback and paperback books as well as collectible volumes. Prices start at $1. Don't miss bronze "Jessie" casually reading a book while seated on a bench on the front lawn (photo op!). Summer Hours (May-Oct): Mon-Sat 10:30am - 4:00pm Winter Hours (Nov-Apr): M W Sat 10:30am - 4:00pm
