Sightseeing

Extremely reasonable pool passes for summer time cooling off and a snack bar when it is COVID safe. Great place to take the kids. One of the biggest playgrounds I have seen. Beautiful walking path around the lake...about 7 minutes from the house.

The local "Gateway to the Dragon". Try one of there home brews. My favorite is "The Prey" from the food truck.

Great roads up to Burkes garden. One side is pavement, the other is gravel. I highly recommend this road for the adventure riders! Google "God's Thumbprint" for an amazing view

The reason people come from all over the country to visit historic Tazewell...the infamous Back of the Dragon. Come enjoy over 400 curves through three mountain ranges and 3500ft of elevation changes. Makes other roads run away with their "tail" between their legs! I had been riding that other road for years before discovering Tazewell and BOTD and there is no reason to go to that speed trap anymore! BOTD features amazing curves, beautiful views and reasonable speed limits! Come visit while it is still pristine!

Food scene

Feel like you have been invited into a friends home for a meal. The Front Porch on Main is a great place for live music on a Saturday.

A must stop just to get a picture with the giant dragon. Grab some coffee, a local beer, or my favorite, "The Prey" from the food truck outback.

I've heard this is changing to a BBQ place but the signage hasn't been updated yet. Great local food place. Highly recommend for a good meal.

The only problem with this place is you catch your fish too fast! Only a few minutes drive from the Dragon's Den, catch some fresh trout and have it fillet on site or take it home and do it yourself. Throw it on the charcoal grill and you have a delicious fresh meal! Only open on Sat and Sun despite what Google says so plan accordingly!

Don't miss the giant Aqua Park and the pool during the summer! For a more relaxing activity take a stroll around the lake or throw your line in and do some fishing! License is required to fish these parts. Huge play area for kids to run around and large picnic areas to host events.

After you've ridden the dragon a few times make sure to check out the amazing drive up to Burke's Garden and enjoy the scenic 12 mile loop. Make sure to stop at Mattie's Place for local home made Amish treats! Once again this is a CASH ONLY establishment
