DUNN
Consider staying at a Dunn, North Carolina bed and breakfast as an alternative to hotel lodging. The town was named for Mr. Bennett R. Dunn, who organized the plans and construction of the railroad through the area. The early activities that the citizens of the town of Dunn, NC depended on to earn their living were farming, turpentine, and logging.
Dunn and surrounding Harnett County provide a variety of attractions. Explore history at the Averasboro Civil War Battleground, the Erwin History Museum, the General William C. Lee Airborne Museum, the Harnett County Indian Museum, or the Old Bluff Church. Pick up the pace a bit at the Benson/Dunn Dragstrip, or keep up your golf game at the Chicora Golf Club. Wesleyan College is nearby, and you can be entertained by the Tar River Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus, or at the Dunn Center Theatre. Whew! This town has come a long way from turpentine! Enjoy your stay with us—and why not check into one of our local bed and breakfast inns so you’ll be well-rested for all this action. |
