- Wonderful place to visit and photograph the vintage village!
Sunday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Historic Sites • Ancient Ruins • Points of Interest & Landmarks • Historic Walking Areas • Mysterious Sites

For decades, the Henry River Mill Village has sat dormant. On the surface, the once vibrant village appears abandoned, lost, and well beyond repair. Since being built in 1905, there has been a lot of history made in the village, including it's most recent appearance as District 12 in the Hunger Games movies. Join us for one of our many tours available for all ages and all interests. See more..
4.5 Coker Arboretum (65 reviews)
- Wonderful Mothers Day Walk
Sunday: 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM Historic Walking Areas • Parks • Gardens

My wife and I visited Coker early on a Sunday morning, so parking was no issue at all. A few people were spread out on the grounds, but we were able to distance ourselves at all times. We both loved the greenery, and there were more flowers blooming here than at the NC Botanical Garden the afternoon prior. Free entry and accessibility made Coker one of the highlights of our Chapel Hill visit. See more..

4.5 Carl J. McEwen Historic Village (15 reviews)
- A Hidden Gem
Historic Walking Areas

Very nicely curated Historic Village. My young son and I visit my retired parents in Mint Hill each summer and this village is right next to the local farmer's market (also great). It's like stepping back into another era. Especially for a citified northerner like me. I especially love going through the doctor's office and my son loves the general store. If you're lucky, you may even stumble upon a group of local musician strumming their fiddles and banjos - WONDERFUL! See more..
