Kanuga’s 1400 acres is located near Hendersonville, NC—an area considered apple country by many. In the late summer and early fall, apples are celebrated in the mountain area with festivals and frequent trips to dozens of local orchards by families gathering apples and indulging in apple-inspired treats, such as apple cider doughnuts and apple turnovers.
Guests of Kanuga’s all-inclusive getaway, Autumn Guest Period (October 12–19), will get to discover why apples are an integral part of the Kanuga area with a trip to the local Sky Top Orchard, where a mountaintop of delicious apples and fruit trees is surrounded by panoramic mountain views.
According to Sky Top Orchards, the picking season for some of the earlier varieties, such as Honeycrisp and Ginger Gold, began in August. But, for other popular varieties, such as Pink Lady and Fuji, the picking season begins in October.
Make plans now for your fall getaway where you can enjoy the apple harvest during Kanuga’s Autumn Guest Period.
