Great place for families and first-time tourists ! I'm a Watauga County native and I've loved it here since I was a kid. Bring a windbreaker, though, it gets chilly even in the summer!

7 bucks to access the rock. Your admission is good all day so come and go as you please. Lunch nearby at Outback.

Just park around the corner and take your pictures somewhere else.

Good sized souvenir shop.

Andrew Sherland

Major tourist trap . $7 to get in. If you want views , just drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway and stop at an overlook for free. If you want hiking , there are plenty of places to hike for free.

Cute tourist trap shop. There are better lookouts for free

Benjamin Johnson

Gift shop cute souvenirs.

Cindy Thomas

$7 charge to walk out and get some photos. Not a long enough hike to be worth it.
