Blowing Rock is a small town in the Blue Ridge Mountains in western North Carolina. The village has a population of about 1,300 people. It is a beautiful suburban destination, with mountain panorama and an outcrop of metamorphic rocks that dangles over Johns River Gorge. The gneiss formation, which is also called Blowing Rock, is estimated to have formed around 1,055 million years ago. Blowing Rock cliff is often dubbed as “North Carolina’s Oldest Travel Attraction”. The ridge affords sweeping views of Table Rock and Hawksbill Mountain. The village is one of the most sought-after retirement destinations in the state. It also features plenty of luxury cabins and other vacation rentals for travelers. Pawrents can stay in pet-friendly cabins in Blowing Rock as well.

9. Cozy condo with a patio (from USD 120)
A flume created by the rock walls creates the wind that brings back up stuff you throw down Blowing Rock cliff. It doesn’t make the phenomenon any less dumbfounding. Ask the host of this charming and well-stocked Airbnb condo if you’re allowed to throw a hat to see if it will come back up. A two-bedroom condominium located in downtown Blowing Rock has a full kitchen. No hotel accommodation in the area allows cooking. This place even has a patio for winding down after a busy day of sightseeing.
