| Sounds of lively music and laughter often greet visitors shortly before they are formally welcomed to tour Old Michie’s Tavern. Guests are ushered into 18th century tavern life through a sensory experience where taste, touch, sight, smell and sound recreate the past. Visitors experience life of travelers through interactive tours that are educational, fun and appropriate for adults and youth. Activities include dancing a reel, quill pen writing, tasting tavern punch. Youth especially enjoy Mr. Michie’s Treasure Hunt. A bag of (chocolate) gold coins rewards successful explorers. Interactive activities held 11:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. March 1-Oct. 31. Self-guided tours, Nov. 1-Feb. 28th. After touring, guests may wish to dine on hearty southern fare or enjoy relaxed shopping in three unique shops – all housed in distinct historic structures. |
