5 Quick North Carolina Weekend Getaways To Close Out Your Summer

  • Wilmington, North Carolina

    For my wife Debbie and I, when we need a quick getaway, there’s no easier choice than Wilmington, North Carolina. While in the Port City, have a picnic at the Battleship, North Carolina. Then, treat yourself to a tour of the BB-55, one of history’s most famous U.S. Navy battleships, the Battleship North Carolina. Also, consider a relaxing one-mile long River Walk along the Cape Fear River. There are also a number of options for dining in the area. One of the best ways to see Wilmington Is to book a Wilmington Trolley Company tour. And of course, while on the coast, you must visit the beaches, whether it be Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, Southport or Oak Island. While in Wilmington, one of the prettiest walks you can take is at Airlie Gardens. Airlie Gardens covers 67 acres along with over 100,000 azaleas and a beautiful nature walk. While touring Airlie Gardens, keep an eye out for the famous Airlie Oak tree which is nearly 500 years old.

  • The Outer Banks

    Our next weekend getaway idea takes us to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Here you will enjoy the Wright Brother’s National Memorial where Wilbur and Orville Wright taught the world to fly. Another must-see is the Cape Hatteras lighthouse, the tallest brick lighthouse in the nation. Make sure to stop off at the original Duck Donuts for a quick snack and enjoy the tallest sand dune on the Atlantic coast at Jockey’s Ridge State Park. During one evening, take in The Lost Colony, a production that’s been going on for 87 years.

  • Asheville, North Carolina

    For those heading to Asheville, North Carolina, a word of caution. You might not want to leave. The downtown area of Asheville is awesome with so much shopping, arts and crafts, culture and so much more. Just South of Asheville is the famous Biltmore Estate, the largest private home in America featuring over 250 rooms and 8,000 acres. A few other points of interest that come to mind are Pisgah National Forest which is home to the famous 60 foot sliding rock natural water slide, Chimney Rock, Craggy Gardens and Mount Mitchell, the highest peak East of Mississippi River. If you and your family enjoy waterfalls, make sure to find time to visit Looking Glass Falls, the upper Whitewater Falls and Dry Falls. If you would rather stay in your car, there are also a number of waterfalls that don’t require a hike. For a nice peaceful walk with your family, visit the Asheville Botanical Garden.

  • Boone, North Carolina

    Our next stop takes us to Boone North Carolina, the home of the Mountaineers, Appalachian State University. While in Boone, enjoy Tweetsie Railroad along with the communities of Blowing Rock and Valle Crucis. While in Valle Crucis, make sure to visit the original Mast General Store. It opened in 1883 and is still in operation today. If time permits, travel the 22 miles South of Boone and enjoy Grandfather Mountain, the highest peak in the Eastern Blue Ridge mountains.

  • Raleigh, North Carolina

    Our final destination takes us to the Capital City of Raleigh, North Carolina. If there’s one must-do while in Raleigh, it is the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences on West Jones Street. This is a free museum that you and your family will absolutely love. If you have kids, take them to the museums 3-D movies like T. Rex, Dinosaurs of Antarctica and more. Over a million people visit this museum every year. By the way, the museum is 4 floors, so give yourself at least 2 hours please. Another destination you and the kids will enjoy is Pullen Park, a great outdoor space that has train rides. For shoppers, enjoy Crabtree Valley Mall. Also, visit the North Carolina State Farmers Market. Two of the best kept secrets about the Farmers Market is the State Farmers Market Restaurant that specializes in fresh-grown North Carolina-based products. Also, before your meal, enjoy the best complimentary biscuits your mouth has ever tasted. For those with a hankering for fresh seafood, enjoy the North Carolina Seafood Restaurant specializing in Calabash style seafood. Go hungry. The portions are huge.
