Dear Traveler,
Do you feel it? That excitement in the air? The chill of winter, the smell of cakes and pies, and the spirit of the season? The holidays are finally here! There’s no better place to soak it all in than Brevard and Transylvania County.
I hear there are a lot of fun festivals, markets, and live music coming up this month. The thought of sipping on hot chocolate while enjoying the mountain air under the glow of twinkling lights just makes me feel all warm inside! Or, maybe I didn’t let that hot chocolate cool down enough.
It’s going to be a magical season, y’all. I’ll save you a spot to watch the Christmas parade!
Happy holidays,
