I was just there on vacation and absolutely fell in love with the town. Great video showing all the places that make it such a gem
Thanks so much for watching! We love Western NC.
I’ve lived in Black Mountain off and on for my whole life. I own a home at the top of the mountain behind you at the start of this video. It’s a great town that’s EXPLODED population wise over the past 7(ish) years. Thanks for coming.
Hi Benjamin! It's a beautiful area. Thanks for sharing with us.
Hello my friends thank you so much for posting this video.... I retired from my job after 37 years this July.... I am moving to Black mountain in the ... To enjoy the sights the fresh air need some new people learn about North Carolina and I would love to share my experiences with New York I love the four tempered seasons at the area offers and I am in love with the mountains I've been a city boy all my life but I've had a touch of country in my blood and I just want to make the second part of my life amazing and I'm going to do it in Black mountain.... thank you for sharing ✌️... Oh yeah I forgot to mention it's the perfect place for me to share New York cuisine in the mountains of North Carolina I'm going to open up an Italian deli I love to meet people and nothing makes me happier than seeing smiling faces and somebody telling me Marco that was so good that's my reward
Hi Marco! Thanks so much for sharing some of your journey with us. Please let us know when you open the Italian deli so we can visit.
My family and I lived in Black Mountain many years ago. No more live there moving to Asheville right now 7 years.
Always visit Black Mountain sometime.
Black mountain is located just below the pisgah national forest. Couoke more cool little towns nearby is mariin to east off I40 and little Switzerland,nc located northeast of black mountain,nc.
Marion,nc is famous for their bigfoot festival they hold in September.
Thank you for the information Harold.
I have been going to Black Mountian for 20 yrs. My brother has a shop in Black Mtn called Black Mountian Iron Works. He made the the big iron chairs at the center of town and a lot of iron works around town. He is on Padgetown Rd, near the tractor place. He makes everything hand made, also has a shop too.
Thanks so much for sharing Charlene.

I live about 45 minutes from black Mountain. Great Place. Phil's Barbeque has good food. They have a great German restaurant and German beer. Great shops, art and people !
Thanks for sharing Elaine.
If you go back again to Black Mountain, you should also try The Black Mountain Bistro. The Trailhead is also very good, and The Tail Basil has excellent Asian food. I live in Asheville. :) If you like thrifting, there is an excellent thrift store nearby called Mountain Home Thrift Store and Cafe. They have good coffee and brownies there too. :) They support the Black Mountain Home for Children.
Thank you for all the wonderful information Margaret.

Our pleasure!
Have yall ever been to Hot Springs NC? My cousin Keith and his wife Jeanne have a hardware store/general store that is 3rd generation. It's called Gentry's. Stop in and visit if you're ever there!They will treat you right!
Yes and we know right where the general store is. Thanks for the comment.
Love this! Such a pretty little town! The food looked so good. Karen, I love the hoodie you chose! You mentioned Lake Lure and Chimney Rock. It’s so beautiful and I know you both would enjoy the little town of Chimney Rock.

Happy New Year Mike and Karen. That plant is a decorative cabbage. Thank you for the tour of the beautiful small town. I've always love small towns. You feel more relaxed in smaller towns. People seem to be more down to earth and genuine. The food did look good. They do seem to like to put alot of cheese on the food. Karen that hooded sweat shirt is cute and looks like it will keep you warm. Looks to be well made. God Bless and take care.
Happy new year! God bless Vivian.

We need to add this place on our places to visit. It looks so peaceful and friendly. You guys are so much fun to watch, so positive and so friendly to everyone. Thank you for all the great videos. I love pizza and always looking for new places to try. Based on Mike's review, I'm going!
Thank you so much 🤗
That's a very small old town. I would love to visit there. Thanks for the tour!! The General Store was great. I could look through there for hours. Neat old stuff.
Thanks for watching! Our pleasure.
I enjoyed everything you showed and all the walking along the sidewalks and in the back ground buildings and people as you shared the video. I saw the words Eminent Domain in one of the history writings and it just brought tears to know so many lost their homes and farms for progress.
All the food looked so good, made my mouth water. The fudge, I would smell :) I have to watch my sugar close, so maybe one to two bites. When you mentioned the Cove, that brought memories of my mother going there years ago for retreats. She loved the Cove. I know she was healed while there during one visit a couple she dearly adored laid hands on upon her and prayed for her. She was release from the evil or demon of suicide. She gave her testimony of how when she was being prayed for she felt the evil go out of her and left her body. What a blessing, she never again tried or thought about taking her life but lived many many years after and helped others as myself with their Spiritual battles. She passed in May of 2019 but is still with us in Spirit today and everyday through our Lord Jesus Christ. Mike and Karen, Thank you so much for bringing up beautiful memories among our Mountains of NC and TN as you walked with us and Jesus. All My love from NC
Thank you so much for sharing your mother's story with us. We appreciate your comment and love for the mountains also. God bless!!
Vacationed there in 2019. It was great!
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the trip! The pretty plants are called flowering kale. Looks like a nice little town to visit sometime soon.
Our pleasure. Thank you.

My family comes from Black Mountain and were one of many early pioneers of this community, I was lucky enough to visit the museum and see photos of the Kerley/ Kerlee family and meet with the outgoing mayor Mrs. Slagle such a wonderful lady, and attend Kerlee Baptist church, such a beautiful area.

Thanks for showing us around Black mountain. Looks like a place we should check out. Love Kilwins. Bothe of our daughters worked at Kilwins in Petoskey Michigan. The first store & owners. Our youngest daughter is pictured on the the bags of Carmel corn with a fellow coworker.
Enjoy your CZcams channel!
Our pleasure Sandra. Thanks for sharing the information with us about your daughter's.
Thank you for sharing this.. I have always wondered about Black Mtn.. All i knew was it was where my Aunt pulled time. Seriously. I wasn't quite sure why they send her here in NC when she was from Va but they did. Now that I know there is much more, I will be making plans to bring my own babies. I LOVE historical adventures. Thank you so much. Be blessed and praying for traveling mercies as yall go on your journey

I just stayed at the KOA a few weeks ago. It was a beautiful campground and we really enjoyed our short trip. Can’t wait to return to the area in the Fall.

I've been to Ridgecrest many many times, but never actually stopped in Black Mountain. I have a son in school at UNC Asheville, so maybe a day trip to Black Mountain is in my foreseeable future. Thanks y'all!
Thanks for sharing. It's a really beautiful area as you know.
