Thanks to John, Shug and Big Buck! You guys are the best! We appreciate all the time you spent with us and all the great brochures and information about Big Stone Gap!
BIG STONE! I enjoyed everything about this place. John at the visitors center was so helpful. Giving me the demographic of the area. He also gave me alot of free stuff. That is always a bonus.
Giving you all a few highlights. A Crystal Gayle concert, a biking trail all the way around the town, and little critters everywhere.
Absolutely LOVE this place! I go every year with the Greeneville Evergreen Wood Carver's! Marvelous time!
We visited Big Stone Gap in June. The staff at the Welcome Center were amazing, so welcoming, friendly and helpful. What a wonderful town and so much happening there. A lot of history in the area. Be sure to visit Good Times Pizza (esp. on Karaoke Nite) and Curklins and The Trail of the Lonesome Pine Drama. Even the Greenbelt Trail was a wonderful walk and a great way to see the town. Hope to visit again.
I cannot think of enough nice things to say about the lovely people that worked here. They were wonderful, full of information and even put a packet together for me. I have quite a bit of family in the local cemetery but couldn't find one of them. I called to see if they knew how to find the plot and they called me back quickly with the answer. They are just wonderful!!!
This is a nice small Visitor Center that was actually part of the set for the Big Stone Gap movie. Town is extremely small but it looks like you were able to rent trikes if you'd like to take your time and roll around town. They provided maps of the area which was very helpful.
We're always up for a trip through the park and a walk on the green belt around the area. It's beautiful every time and no matter what time of the day. You can come take a look at the river and ball fields plus the trees and scenery around. The small visiting center can give you the historical info and recommend other places to go or stay.
We were there 7/17, while exploring "The Crooked Road." Although we were there on the wrong day to see the drama and some museums, Jillian provided interesting detail about the town and its history. She was very personable and went out of her way to help us. She directed us to the walking trail and provided a safe place to stow the guitar while we walked. When we returned, she had bottles of cold water ready.
