Dear Haywood County Visitors and Supporters,

Thank you so much to everyone for your continued kind words of support for Haywood County, NC, including Canton, Clyde, Waynesville, Maggie Valley, and Lake Junaluska. We are taking things one day at a time right now and it means a lot to us to hear from you.

First and foremost, Visit Haywood’s number one priority is public safety. In collaboration with Haywood County organizations, including County Government, Emergency Services, the Sheriff's Office, and the Chamber of Commerce, we are strongly encouraging visitors to reschedule their upcoming trips for another time. This decision also follows the direction of Governor Cooper, Visit North Carolina, and other state officials to advise against travel to impacted areas in Western North Carolina.

Until further notice, we are asking all visitors to please refrain from traveling to Haywood County, as visitors may place additional strain on disaster relief efforts. This region is still in an active emergency, and all resources need to be entirely focused on our residents and emergency workers.

Popular roads for fall foliage sightseeing including the Blue Ridge Parkway, Cataloochee Valley, US 276, and NC 215 are currently impassable or closed. All public lands, federal and local, are closed. Many other roads are blocked by mud, debris, or are washed out. Gas and food are in very short supply and there is extremely limited cell service and Internet. Most of Haywood County is under a boil water advisory. There is a county-wide curfew from 9PM to 7AM.

Some businesses throughout Haywood County have started to reopen to provide much needed services and food for locals. However, due to the Internet outage, many are only taking cash payments and what they can offer is limited.

Please check back here and on visithaywood.com/alerts on a weekly basis for continued updates. Our goal is to provide as much information as possible so that you can make informed decisions about future travel.
