Food Scene
Unique restaurant about 20 minutes away from our Guest Cottage. The drive takes you along McCoy Falls down at the New River as well as up and around the Mountains. Live music some Fridays and Saturdays and great brick oven pizza. Delicious brunch on Sundays as well. Call ahead for reservations if you can but they also take walk-ins.

Timber frame restaurant/brewery provides a cozy atmosphere. If it's nice, eat outside on the balcony overlooking the New River! We love their black and blue steak salad as well as the burger.

Parks & Nature
This is a nice, close place to put in a fishing boat, kayak or canoe. There is a little grassy spot to sit and watch the kids swim as well. If the River is low, you can paddle upstream about a 1/4 mile to Goat Island. Fun to get out and swim around.

Behing the Church, back and to the left, is a great little swimming hole. Nice shady and sunny spot to walk up and down the creek and take a little dip! Our kids love this place as they can run back and forth from the playground to the creek!
