Mountain Lake & Covered Bridges
Join us on Sunday, June 11, 2023, as we travel Mountain Lake Resort, Pembroke, VA. The rustic and historic Mountain Lake Lodge sits in the middle of a 2,600-acre nature preserve and is surrounded by Appalachian Mountains. Mountain Lake was the setting for the 1987 movie Dirty Dancing starring Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze. You will be able to visit the shops, see the hotel and explore the grounds.
We will visit two of Virginia’s remaining covered bridges. The 1912 Link Covered Bridge, and the 1916 Clover Hollow Covered Bridge. We will visit the Narrow’s Duck Pond and Mill Dam. A buffet lunch will be at Anna’s Restaurant in Narrow’s.
We will travel along the scenic New River on part of our journey.
A stop will be made at the April 16 Memorial, We Remember, on the campus of Virginia Tech. There are 32 engraved Hokie Stones.
As we begin our journey home, we will make other stops of interest as time allows.
