White (Squirrel) Christmas
(Nov. 3 – Jan. 1)

You don’t have to win our holiday giveaway (see entry form at bottom of page) to enjoy all that Brevard and the Land of Waterfalls have to offer.

In fact, there is no better place to get into the Christmas spirit than our warm and welcoming mountain home. Here’s your chance to leave behind the mall madness, the harried shoppers and the clichéd gifts. Instead, we invite you to experience the genuine joys of the season with a homespun holiday starring our version of Santa’s helpers, our locally famous White Squirrels.

Bring the family to cut your own Christmas tree and purchase fragrant, fresh greenery from one of our local farmers.

Stroll down our festive downtown full of unique shops and galleries filled with handmade, one-of-a-kind gifts.

Experience small-town holiday events like our annual Christmas Parade and Twilight Tour, Brevard College’s A Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols and the retro-cool Aluminum Christmas Tree Museum.

And then ring in 2019 at one of western North Carolina’s most joyous New Year’s celebrations, the 7th Annual Oskar Blues Hootenanny.

Our calendar has details on every holiday event right here.

Make a Night…or Two…of It

Our local innkeepers welcome visitors with a twinkle in their eyes and the kind of cozy, inviting surroundings that will make you want to put up your feet and relax after a full day or night of revelry and merry making.

Find the perfect spot for your long winter’s nap here.

Over the Hills We Go

Early winter is a great time to get out into the woods. And there’s no better place to be outdoors than in Transylvania County. Here, the treetops really do glisten and, whether you’re a hiker, horseman, mountain biker or waterfall hunter, the crisp mountain air makes any kind of outdoor activity just that much more exhilarating.

We’ve got lots of tips about the outdoors in North Carolina’s Land of Waterfalls. Start with our Top 10 Waterfall Tips, Artful Adventures and Epic Singletrack. Go dashing through the snow to here for even more great outdoor ideas.
