Recreational activities at Chetola include fishing, boating, hiking, indoor pool, Jacuzzi, fitness center and more.  It is also home to the Annual North Carolina Symphony, the Blue Ridge Wine Festival, and year round concerts.  Stroll around the lake for a relaxing afternoon or take a short walk to the town of Blowing Rock.  Enjoy the quaint  shops in town, have lunch in the relaxed atmosphere of Blowing Rock, or just sit in the park and watch the world go by.  Chetola combines gracious living and casual charm.
