the beautiful
Blue Ridge Mountains. Boone

than that of most large cities, and a wide
variety of exciting things to do.

a wealth of shopping and dining opportunities
located at the edge of Appalachian State
University’s campus. On King Street you’ll find
everything from specialty sandwich shops to
antique emporiums and outdoor supply shops.

received national recognition for winning their
third straight national championship in
football, which brings football fans from all
areas of the country to the small town during
football season.
Boone NC is also home to the original family
theme park, Tweetsie Railroad. Tweetsie Railroad
is nestled between Boone and Blowing Rock, and
offers a rich learning atmosphere for children

Western-themed train ride that is attacked by
Indians and outlaws. In addition to the exciting
ride on their steam locomotives, families also
enjoy amusement rides and other activities that

in North Carolina, is located just a short drive
