Went on The distillery tour with some motorcycle rider friends of mine.the tour was very well organized there was a short film that we watched about The distillery and it answered a lot of questions before the tour began. The person giving the tour was the owner. The tasting afterwards lets you taste all of the available spirits they make there. There's a full service bar there as well and gift shop. We really enjoyed our time there, the bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. The day we went there they also had a hot dog and sausage Bender outside for food which was fantastic as well I wish I knew the name of that business. But a great time was had by all of us. And I would definitely recommend this and will be coming back.

Deep River's taproom features 12 beers on tap including taproom exclusives. Food Trucks and live music all weekend.
Deep River has many wonderful brews! The Watermelon Lager is a favorite. From time to time they host food trucks and bands. Had a blast July 4th and could see the fireworks in downtown.

The Ava Gardner Museum, one of North Carolina’s most remarkable attractions, honors the life, loves, and legacy of Ava Gardner, who was born and raised in Johnston County. She became one of Hollywood’s most glamorous leading ladies and visitors to the museum enjoy an introductory film on her life, 16 permanent exhibits from her humble beginnings, her discovery story, a variety of movie posters, movie memorabilia, personal clothing and movie costumes and much more. New exhibits are rotated in the museum on an annual basis to continue to share Ava's incredible story and share with the world "the real Ava", who was down to earth, loving, direct and very approachable for one of Hollywood's most famous stars from the Golden Era. Visit the museum in Historic Downtown Smithfield any time, or make special plans to attend the Ava Gardner Festival held in May each year.
I took my husband’s family visiting from the UK here before some outlet shopping. While the teen boys in the group opted out, they regretted it later as we talked about Ava’s adventurous life, movies, Howard Huges & Frank Sinatra - as well as the very unique paintings of Ava. We appreciated Miss Sarah’s passion for Ava & thought the musuem was well done - jewelry, clothing, movie artifacts, and personal items. We were also fortunate to have a Board member, Melissa, share stories & give us insights. I would like to see more of the items in storage!

The Battle of Bentonville, fought March 19-21, 1865, was the last full-scale action of the Civil War in which a Confederate army was able to mount a tactical offensive. This major battle, the largest ever fought in North Carolina, was the only significant attempt to defeat the large Union army of Gen. William T. Sherman during its march through the Carolinas in the spring of 1865.
There was so much to see and learn about the Civil War. There are walking tours as well as a 10 mile( if you dont get lost ), driving tour. They have a gift shop with nice souvenirs. The Haprer House was the highlight of the tour. If you enjoy history, a definite must see.

We spent an hour as we drove through on a trip with my mother-in-law. A short movie in the front office followed by a tour within the museum and a self guided tour of a half dozen out buildings with interpretive signs provided insight into tobacco farms of yesteryear. I would recommend stopping and perhaps driving ~30 minutes out of your way to visit.

Beautiful hideaway that every family should enjoy, with or without kids. We happened upon it during our first day in NC (just moved here) and returned for a few hours. Not very busy, but you will pass a few people along the way. And the educational moments along the way are fun; I finally learned about a 'cord' of wood measurement.

The Howell Theatre provides the community with the entertainment that they want to see, while keeping the prices at a price point that any family can afford, making The Howell the Best Entertainment Value in Smithfield since 1935.
I've been coming here since I was a child and have always loved the Nostalgia of this place. It's downtown Smithfield right on the corner, the prices are cheap, and the food is awesome!

I met a friend at Clayton Community Park and this was my experience. The park itself is broken into numerous sections. There's a designated section for younger children which is great. The background noise from the tennis courts and baseball field gives you that wholesome American feeling. Around the exterior of the playground equipment, there's a walking trail. It's decently sized and wide enough to easily keep 6ft distance from other people. Overall, the park was great. The only downside (literally) is that there is a decently sized cliff near the trail. At first, this was an enjoyable site to see. That quickly changed when an infant baby child from a nearby house wandered a wee bit too close. As the baby-child approached the cliff, my friend and I looked at each other with concern, shrugged our shoulders, and swiftly carried on. Nothing could be done for the baby... Or so we thought. Luckily at the last moment, the baby's mother had finished her social media post and noticed that the child had wandered too close to the cliff. Alas the baby was saved, though no one cheered.
