moses h cone house

Moses H. Cone Memorial Park is simply amazing. What else can you say about this place. Flat Top Manor, a gleaming white 23-room, 13,000 square foot mansion. It sits above Blowing Rock, NC and is a favorite stop on the Blue Ridge Parkway. If the manor isn't enough to keep you busy, hike the many trails, visit the lake, apple orchards and more. This is also a favorite for equestrians with many trails to ride.

Moses H. Cone is an easy drive up 321 N from Hickory, NC to Blowing Rock. Or catch the Blue Ridge Parkway north or south of Blowing Rock. It is about 1.5 hours from Statesville, NC.
