History
The introduction of the automobile and improved roads early in the twentieth century further eased the journey to Blowing Rock, and visitors began to arrive from as far away as Florida. To keep their families safe, men leaving for service in the Confederate Army often sent them to Blowing Rock, which became a local refuge from the fighting. Due to the town's well-to-do, out-of-state summertime residents, Blowing Rock boasts top-quality restaurants, hotels, golf courses, and other attractions. During the American Civil War the mountains of North Carolina often witnessed fierce guerilla warfare between groups of pro-Confederate and pro-Union fighters. The need for cleaner and better streets (most streets then were simply dirt tracks) led to the paving of the town's streets and highways.
