travel in Western North Carolina

Services for Visitors:

If you are visiting WNC with the consideration of relocating to the area, we want to guide you to see the best experience via an exploration itinerary. Our locally crafted itineraries will save you time and help you enjoy the best of the area from a WNC native. You won’t need to spend hours searching for your next restaurant, hike or activity – we will do the work for you – and it will be in the palm of your hand.

While you’re visiting, you can an add on ‘community conversation’ with Founder, Summer Stipe, where you can questions about local schools, faith community, recreation, volunteerism, etc. Additionally, if you haven’t already found one, we can connect you with a local real estate agent that meets your needs & personality. We have a list of trusted & knowledgeable agents.

Thank you so much for your arrangements for our visit last weekend. Your services benefitted us tremendously! We had a great time and clearly got a good sense of what life is like in your wonderful community.
