Ditto on Mabry Mill.

If you are there near lunch $$$, a couple of more miles down the road, Chatteau Morrisette Winery . . . or dinner $$$$ . . . or a simple wine tasting for a dollar or two for up to 6 or tastings of wine. They also have musical festivals throughout the year on some weekends. Sometimes blues, sometimes jazz.

A little off the BRP . . . Blacksburg and VT, maybe it will be a game weekend and take in a football game. Husband and both sisters graduated from VT.

Oh right before you get to Mabry Mills, in Meadows of Dan there is a Nancy’s Homemade Fudge . . . very good, we always go at least once while visiting the in-laws nearby.

Also nearby but off the Parkway is Fairy Stone Park. The park’s cross-shaped, namesake stone is prevalent in the region . . . interesting.

Have a nice trip~!

Love that place. I never like sweet wines, but they have a dessert wine - a bright red color - that is just fantastic.

Beautiful vistas and good food. Even the crackers they serve with the wine tasting are good.
