When the sun goes down on the mountains, the fun does not end in Little Switzerland, NC, on Saturday evenings in July and August. For more than 80 years, this community has gathered on Saturday nights to enjoy cake walks, broom dances and even a little clogging at the Square Dance at Geneva Hall. The fun begins at 8 p.m. and is wholesome enough for the whole family to enjoy. Do not worry if you have never square danced before. The evening begins with a quick lesson, so newcomers can learn the basic calls and join the fun with confidence. Geneva Hall is literal steps away from the beautiful Switzerland Inn, right off the Blue Ridge Parkway at Milepost 334.
Back at the Switzerland Inn, take time to relax with their mountain views and crisp mountain breezes. The Shops at Switzerland Inn are steps away, where the family can enjoy ice cream, arts and crafts, textiles and handmade gifts to take home for lasting memories.
Before heading to the square dance, The Chalet at the Switzerland Inn can make sure you are well-fed for the evening festivities. For a libation before the dancing begins, the Fowl Play Pub & Taproom is conveniently next door.
