Mount Holly is neslted along the western bank of the Catawba River, north of Interstate 85 and south of NC 16, about ten miles from Gastonia, and north of the city of Belmont. With a population just under 10,000, this friendly town is an ideal spot to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.
There are plenty of nearby venues for you and your family to enjoy such as Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens, Crowder’s Mountain State Park and Schiele Museum of Natural History and planetarium. Christmas Town USA is a must see during the Christmas season. Hundreds of thousands of lights make the town of McAdenville shine bright as motorists drive by in awe.
