Made by & for the community
We asked North Carolinians to share their favorite places & things to do on the plateau in the Highlands, Cashiers, Sapphire, Glenville & Lake Toxaway areas for a community guide that promotes local businesses, non-profit organizations and more. Here’s a peek below at their answers in random order — stay tuned for the full B. Local Guide coming early 2021.
