Shelby Hotel & Travel Guide
Earl Scruggs, a pioneer of banjo music and beloved son of Shelby, North Carolina, once said, "I enjoy doing new tunes. It gives me a little bit to perk up, to pay a little bit more attention." As a wise wanderer, you know this spirit well. Exploring a new-to-you destination has a magically enlivening effect, lifting your spirit while you're there and sending you home with a discernibly brighter outlook. Make reservations at Shelby, NC hotels, spend some time in Scruggs' hometown, and absorb the twangy soundtrack of this historic hub in foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Visiting Shelby
Stay at one of the great hotels in Shelby, NC and discover why the place proclaims itself the "City of Pleasant Living." Strolling its wide, oak-shaded sidewalks, taking in the cheerful energy around the public square, and listening to live bluegrass as you sample the chill offerings of a craft brewery encourage you to slow down and soak it all in. Adjacent to the square is the circa-1907 Cleveland County Courthouse with its stately columns and cupola. It now houses the Earl Scruggs Center, a showcase of the music, culture, and history of the south. You'll come away from its acclaimed, high-tech exhibits with an appreciation not only for Scruggs' contributions to bluegrass, but also of the way music permeates your bones and invigorates the way of life in the Piedmont. Arrange one of the rental cars in Shelby, tune the radio to a local station, and listen to the signature sounds of the region all the way to Charlotte. With many Charlotte hotels ready to welcome you for a night or more, stay and sample heaps of Carolina barbecue. Savor the most tender pieces of pork, and beneath the finish of piquant spices and the sharp tang of a vinegary sauce, you'll detect the smoky depths that come only from a long, slow metamorphosis in a pit of smoldering hardwood.
Book flights and hotels near Shelby, NC together for the biggest savings. You'll have enough left over to buy a great souvenir. Perhaps a banjo?
