Mini Vacations Near Statesville, NC

My husband and I are trying to pick some things to do around Christmas. We have a lot of extra time in December that we would like to plan some day or even two day trips surrounding around Christmas activities. We are looking for anything to do within 5-6 hours of Statesville, NC. We know about McAdenville, but we are trying to find some other places. Any ideas?

If you chose Old Salem, right close to there is Tanglewood, in Clemmons and they have a show w/ the lights every year that is incredible! You drive through and the displays are awesome!

You might try the Victoria House in East Bend which is beautifully decorated and provides a fantastic lunch.

Hi,
Thanks for the responses. I have been both to Old Salem and Biltmore, just not around Christmas. Are the prices higher for the holiday? What else do these places do for Christmas?

Thanks again!

You should try to visit Old Salem (in Winston-Salem). It is a restored Moravian village and very interesting. Don't miss the bakery!
Biltmore House (in Asheville) is very lovely when decorated for Christmas. They also have a Gingerbread House competition that is fun to see.
