Still Making Great Memories To Last A Lifetime

Does the cold weather and daylight savings have you catching cabin fever? Well, what better cure for cabin fever then visiting a cabin in the mountains? A change of scenery and being outside in the mountain air is important for your mental and physical health. 

Stay in one of Burke County’s fantastic vacation rentals or AirBnBs where you can rest assured knowing you will be safely distanced from others and you can enjoy your time with family or friends knowing you are in a clean environment where you can just “be.” The rural mountain areas of Burke County are the perfect place to sit around a campfire or go for a hike but are still close enough to access grocery stores and other amenities you may need during your stay. 

When you do feel like masking up and going into town, the communities of Morganton and Valdese will be waiting for you with great restaurants and unique stores that keep your safety as a high priority. On nice days it is easy to dine outside thanks to downtown Morganton’s parklets and streateries which allow anyone to bring food with them to eat outdoors in the quaint downtown atmosphere. 

When you want to do something other than hike, the Waldensian Trail of Faith offers a comprehensive outdoor museum so you can learn about the history of the town of Valdese while still being outside and socially distant. However you want to spend your quarantine time, know you can spend it in Burke County safely while still making great memories to last a lifetime.
