The quaint little town of Fayetteville has a lot going for it. Adjoining the New River Gorge, a natural wonder and the nation’s newest National Park, Fayetteville sports tons of outdoor recreational opportunities and boasts a beautiful historic downtown, and has been variously called one of the “Top 10 Coolest Small Towns in America” and the “Best River Town”. The area is a mecca for mountain bikers, whitewater rafters, and rock climbers.

But for those who want to enjoy a quiet but modern small-town atmosphere, Fayetteville holds other kinds of treasures. One of those is The Hobbit Hole.
