THINGS TO DO
Relax at Double Oaks or play somewhere nearby.
Greensboro and the surrounding community has many things to offer visitors. Let us help you plan an outing, and then come home to Double Oaks.
FOR OUTDOORS ENTHUSIASTS
Greensboro and nearby areas offer many opportunities for outdoor adventure. Enjoy a picnic or take a walk through any of Greensboro’s beautiful public gardens. Explore the more than 90 miles of trails and greenways in the area, including the Lake Daniel greenway which begins just a few blocks from our front door at Double Oaks. The lakes in Greensboro offer opportunities for boating and fishing. And within an hour’s drive, you can be in places like Pilot Mountain or Uwharrie National Forest.
FOR THOSE WHO SHOP
Our favorite place to shop is in downtown Greensboro, only a mile from Double Oaks, where you could pick up your next read at Scuppernong Books, browse through vintage clothes at Design Archives, find a unique gift at Hudson’s Hill, or pop into any of the other shops and eateries on Elm Street. The Friendly Center and the Four Seasons Mall are home to national stores and brands.
FOR FOODIES AND BEER GEEKS
The city is home to multiple restaurants to suit any taste or preference. In downtown and nearby districts, you might choose one of these fine local establishments: White and Wood, Blue Denim, Hops Burger Bar, Freeman’s Grub & Pub, or Sticks and Stones, to name just a few. Thirsty? Try one of Greensboro’s craft breweries, including Joymongers, Little Brother Brewing, Natty Greene’s, and Southend Brewing, or Greensboro’s distillery, Fainting Goat Spirits.
