Restaurants/Brews & Cider

Just a mile down the trail toward Hendersonville is Packa's Place.  Their on-site beer garden has a nice selection of local craft brews, a few domestics, wines, local ciders, local seltzers and mimosas.

In addition to serving as a working Beefalo farm, their tap room and food trucks offer a great place for families (no matter how big or small) to enjoy the outdoors and beauty that WNC and Horse Shoe offers.

Blocks away from downtown Hendersonville, Trailside is the anchor of the Lennox Park  alongside the Ecusta Trail Greenway.  With an expansive Brewhouse and Tasting room inside this renovated factory space, the beauty of the interior is matched only by the inviting beauty of our outdoor beer garden complete with trail access, tables, chairs, fire pits, a stage for concerts and gatherings. Trailside has everything you want and need…plus we’ve also got BEER!

Just a few blocks up the road toward Brevard you'll find fresh seafood brought in 6 days a week to be cooked your way, Grilled, Steamed, Blackened, or Fried. Come grab a seat at our Oyster Bar to pick your Live Oysters and watch the oyster shucking action. Don’t forget to check out our Market Board with all of our Market Prices for items like Raw in the half shell, Steamed, and Chargrilled Oysters, Peel & Eat Shrimp, Mussels, Scallops, and our Fresh Catch of the Day. We also have a full bar with 18 taps for craft beer from local breweries.

Locals call it the Disneyland of Beer, or what Willy Wonka's Brewery would look like. Whatever you call it, Sierra Nevada is a "must visit" for lunch, dinner or a beer.  Located about a 15 minute drive from the campground.

Located about 10 miles up the future Ecusta Trail toward Brevard, or 15 minutes by car, Oskar Blues Brewery offers a great place to eat, relax, enjoy music 7 days a week.
