Fall in love with Cabarrus County!
Crisp air, colorful leaves and fun seasonal happenings make fall the perfect time to explore. Whether you want to go all in on pumpkins (and pumpkin spice) or just take advantage of cooler temperatures, this four-day itinerary covers the most memorable fall activities in the region.
Autumn Accommodations
Cabarrus County is packed with places to stay, from hotels right alongside racing action to inns that are steps away from charming downtowns. Along with these unique lodging options, browse a full list of area accommodations here to find the best fit.
For Family Fun
The activities above are all accompanied by even more fall festivals and Halloween fun, such as Howl-O-Ween at Great Wolf Lodge. The themed indoor water park resort also includes tons of dry land adventures and spook-tacular fun like Halloween crafts and a costume parade.
For A Quiet Retreat
Built circa 1920, The Inn at Mt. Pleasant is an ideal spot for some serious downtime. Full breakfast is included with your stay and the gardens are a treat in the fall. Set out on a short walk past other historic homes to admire bright fall foliage and end in downtown Mount Pleasant where shops and local restaurants like Cafe Lentz await.
