Sightseeing
You can hike to three levels to see this beautiful waterfall. There is a picnic area before coming into the Linville Falls entrance area. The Linville Caverns is a nearby attraction. There is the Linville Winery in the area too ( you can take a picnic lunch there). So you can do all three in one day if you wish.

Summer
Summer....
shorts, t shirts, jeans, bathing suits ( pretty much everything is casual unless you know you've booked a "fancy" place. The two restaurants we recommended are very casual. Comfortable shoes ( sneakers, sandals...). If you are going to hike bring comfortable sneakers work or hiking boots. Water shoes may come handy for rock areas in the water.
If you are going whitewater rafting bring a change of clothes just in case. There are changing rooms for after ( but check ahead just in case). Definitely wear jeans for horseback riding...shorts are NOT a good idea !

Winter
Depending on what you plan to do you need to consider your winter wear. Layering is a good idea so you can remove layers if they day warms up. Good snow boots/socks for tubing to keep your toes warm ! Even inside cabin you will feel cool during fall/winter and maybe early spring so have some light warm attire for inside the cabin if you come during these seasons.

Food
Plan your meals ahead...if you are going to be cooking bring items or do a purchase at our local grocery/Walmart...at Ingles if you give them our cabin landline number at check out you will get discount on many items. Based on outings we plan to do we plan our meals in cabin or out. It is BEST to get groceries for your full stay all at once because market is not too close. However, we do have a Dollar General about 15 minutes from our community entrance that has a lot of essential items you can get if you run out ( milk, eggs....) They don't carry meats, but do carry many other items.
