You can walk around the Lees McCrae campus right in the heart of Banner Elk, it's very scenic and nice - Lees-McRae College: About the College And just walk Main St. itself and visit some of the cute shops.
Hang a right off of Main St in Banner Elk onto hwy 184 north and go on up (and I do mean UP) a few miles to Beech Mt. for a great meal with views at Jackalopes View. You don't want to miss the views up there in Beech Mt
Looks like you will miss the Wooly Worm Festival, but you will be near Mast General Store (Valle Crucis) and all the lovely scenery. I hear the leaves are peaking early this year. You are not far from Boone and Blowing Rock - Appalachian State University. Really, this time of year is so gorgeous with the leaves and cool air that you will not have to "do" anything but be there and soak it all in!
And the newest that is just opening this month... Linville Falls Winery They don't have a web site and may not be open yet, but they've built a beautiful Tuscan style villa on US 221 between Newland and Linville Falls.

Have done tastings in the past two weeks at both Grandfather and Linville Falls. At this point, Grandfather Winery is by far the better of the two, both in atmosphere and quality of the wines. Go to both, but give Linville Falls a little more time to get established before passing judgment.
