Journaling reads: Besides all of the sites to see in the Boone area of North Carolina, you really could stay at the resort and find plenty to do. There is a pool, hot tub, gym, arcade inside. Outside there is shuffle board, putt-putt golf, frisbee baskets, tennis courts, basketball hoops, deck with gazebo shelter and grill and picnic tables. You could even walk down the hill to shopping and eating.
