Friday, June 27th- exactly 9 months after Hurricane Helene, @chimneyrocknc will reopen to the public! “Reservations will be required for all guests, including Annual Passholders. Initially, we’ll be open Friday-Monday and space will be limited as we get back up and running. Reservations go live in the coming weeks at chimneyrockpark.com.” We’ve missed you and we cannot wait to be part of your comeback story. ❤️🩹 #nc #nctripping #helene #wncstrong #chimneyrock #ncstateparks @ncstateparks@visitnc #travel #wncopenforbusiness
Is this the weirdest place in North Carolina? Colonial-style cabin transformed into a cozy, quirky wonderland, every surface totally draped in coffee mugs! Started over 25 years ago by Avery & Doris Sisk, it’s now home to an estimated 30k+ mugs, including donations from wandering travelers- just find a free nail and leave your mug behind! ❤️ Visit with care: Though this is open to visitors, it’s technically private property. Please respect the space—stay on paths, tread lightly, and leave no trace. How to get there: (You will lose cell service) Drive about half a mile north/west on NC‑90 from Collettsville, turn onto Old Johns River Rd. Follow 2–2.5 miles, then right onto a gravel lane to the cabin at the end. Address: 2085–2199 Old Johns River Rd, Collettsville, NC 28611 #nc #nctripping #atlasobscura #northcarolina #oddity #visitnc

Every summer in North Carolina, something truly epic happens in the towns along historic U.S. Highway 301. It’s not a parade or a food festival—it’s the 301 Endless Yard Sale... and yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like. Imagine over 100 miles of deals, treasures, and hidden gems, stretching from Weldon in the north to Dunn in the south. For two full days—Friday and Saturday, June 20th and 21st—you’ll find hundreds of vendors set up in yards, parking lots, and open fields, offering antiques, collectibles, vintage goods, handmade items, and those one-of-a-kind pieces you didn’t even know you needed. Here’s what you need to know before you go: * Get there early—vendors are open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the best finds go fast. * Bring cash—most sellers don’t accept cards. * Wear comfortable shoes, pack water and snacks, and don’t forget sunscreen. * Want to plan your route? County maps and vendor listings are available online to help you make the most of your time. So mark your calendar, pack the car, and head out for a weekend of treasure hunting on Highway 301. This isn’t just a yard sale. It’s the 301 Endless Yard Sale—and it’s waiting for you.
