A Spring Reset in Blowing Rock: The Perfect Time to Get-Away

Escape to the quiet beauty of early spring in Blowing Rock. This guide highlights local events, scenic moments, and the relaxed charm that makes March the perfect time to unwind and recharge at The Getaway Inn.

Why March is One of our Favorite Seasons: 

March is a shoulder season at its best: fewer crowds means you can explore without the usual rush; and wide-open spaces invite safe, relaxed adventures. It’s a month that makes it easy to combine gentle days with cozy, shared moments—a group hike followed by a movie night in the comfort of your townhome, or a morning coffee ritual on private balconies that set a calm tone for the day.

Located in the heart of downtown grants access to Blowing Rock’s dining, shops, and trails so you can plan a series of small, memorable outings without feeling rushed. And with spring waking up the valley, you’ll experience the first blooms, breezy afternoons, and evenings ripe for storytelling, live music, and laughter. 

Events in March You Don’t Want to Miss! 

  • Studio Saturdays at BRAHM (for ages 12–18) — March 14 and March 28, 11:00 AM–1:00 PM: Youth-directed studio time inspired by famous artists. Registration required. A neat tie-in if you’ve got young creatives travelling with you; plus, it frees the adults for a lunch date nearby! 
  • Mind into Matter — March 19: An inspiring event for art lovers and the creatively curious. Great for a slow afternoon of gallery-hopping or a dedicated artsy date, with conversation fuel for days after.
  • Sip & Shop for a Cause — March 20: A delightful town stroll for those who enjoy a little wine with their shopping! Savor tastings from local businesses while supporting a good cause, all without straying far from The Getaway.
