Mills River Offers Unique Holiday Experience
Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Western North Carolina is dotted with quaint towns that have maintained their charm for generations. Black Mountain, Saluda, Hendersonville - home of gated community Fox Run Preserve - and more all contribute to the distinctive and strong heritage of the region, and the 22 square miles of Mills River, located just minutes from Fox Run, is part of the host of picturesque towns that are steeped in history. Boasting an agricultural legacy that was established in the late 1700s, Mills River offers visitors an authentic mountain experience with plenty of dancing, river tubing, and other outdoor adventures to be found.
On November 14th, the town will celebrate their longstanding tradition in agriculture when Van Wingerden International Greenhouses open their doors to visitors to share the impressive sight of acres of poinsettias in full bloom. Hundreds of the beautiful plants create expansive fields of seasonal color ready to kick off the excitement and inviting cheer of the holidays.
The Hendersonville real estate available at Fox Run Preserve affords residents convenient access to unique attractions and experiences in surrounding towns like Mills River. And if you are still determined to spend the last few days of autumn outdoors, why not make a day of it when you visit the greenhouses. In addition to its charm and history, Mills River also offers an incredible recreational area in the Pisgah National Forest, where visitors can enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and more. And if you are looking for adventure a little closer to home, Fox Run Preserve offers great opportunities, too, with its own host of outdoor amenities that include trails, a fire pit, fishing pond, open space, and more.
