🤗 A Warm Welcome and Perfect Parking

We knew we were in for a treat from the moment we pulled into Round Peak Vineyards.

The stunning mountain views and vibrant flowers set the stage for a magical evening.

We were greeted promptly and given clear directions on where to park.

We lucked out with a shaded spot under the trees, right next to the fenced-in dog park.

Talk about a perfect setup! Harley was thrilled to have a safe space to play after we settled in.

With just one other Harvest Host member—a small van—it was a peaceful, quiet night, ideal for unwinding.

Watching the sun set is one of my favorite things to do and the view from the patio did not disappoint.

🍷 Sipping and Savoring the Best of Round Peak

Our adventure started in the indoor tasting room, where the owner walked us through their impressive selection of wines.

A cozy wine club room featuring numerous wine bottles on shelves, a small TV mounted above, and a round table with a barrel base. A dog is sleeping on a cushion in the corner.

I opted for a wine flight, which included six delightful varieties and a keepsake glass.

Each sip was a new experience, but the Skull Camp Sweetest Thing stood out for me.

This sweet Rosé, crafted from Chardonnay, Vidal Blanc, and a hint of red wine, was simply divine.

And let’s not forget the wine slushies! The flavor of the day was the lemon-lime flavor, and it was the perfect refreshing treat for a warm evening.

If you’re feeling peckish, they’ve got you covered with a variety of snacks to pair with your drinks.

😋 Discovering Unique Flavors

One of the highlights of our visit was learning about the Bubbly Nirvana Sparkling Rosé, made from Elderflower blooms grown right there in the vineyard.

Close-up of a plastic cup filled with sparkling rosé placed on a menu listing its details: 'Bubbly Nirvana Sparkling Rosé, 4 oz flute, made with elderberry flowers grown in the vineyard. Bubbly, floral, and lightly sweet.'.

The backstory was fascinating—initially planted for beer production, deer and birds always snatched up the elderberries.

A clever customer suggested making elderflower wine instead, and now Round Peak is the only winery in the area producing this unique beverage.

It’s a nod to a European tradition that dates back 300 years!

All the wines at Round Peak are hand-harvested and estate-bottled, ensuring top-notch quality.

Rows of grapevines grow in a vineyard bordered by lush green trees under a clear blue sky.

It’s no wonder they’ve won multiple awards.

And for those who prefer hops to grapes, Round Peak is also home to Skull Camp Brewing, offering a selection of craft beers.

🎯 Fun and Games in the Vineyard

But wine isn’t the only attraction at Round Peak.

They’ve got an 18-hole disc golf course that winds through the vineyard, providing a fun way to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

We gave it a shot and, well, let’s just say we need a bit more practice!

There’s also a quirky game called hookey that had us laughing at our lack of skills.

And here’s a tip: don’t bother looking at the clock while you’re there.

Between the wine, the games, and the stunning views, you’ll feel like you’ve been blissfully lost in time all day.

🎸 Live Music, Food Trucks, and Friendly Faces

If you plan your visit for the weekend, you’re in for an extra treat.

Round Peak hosts live music and occasionally brings in food trucks, adding to the festive atmosphere.

A chalkboard outside a green door lists live music events on May 18 and May 25, along with available drinks. A water bowl is on the ground next to the board, and part of a person's leg is visible.

It’s no wonder it’s the fourth oldest winery in the area, steeped in history and charm.

🚔 Exploring Mayberry and Beyond

After a fantastic afternoon at Round Peak, we unhooked our truck from our RV and took a short drive into Mount Airy.

Known as the hometown of Andy Griffith (or Mayberry for fans of the show), this quaint town is just 15 minutes away. (Thanks to the ladies at Big Rig Friendly RV Park for telling me this before we left in the morning.)

We had a blast exploring the local sights, including a stop at Walmart and the Mayberry Chrome Shop to see what we could find for our Super C RV.

📶 Cell Phone Service and Internet

We have multiple internet jetpacks and we always test the speeds wherever we go. (if I remember, lol!)

At Round Peak Vineyards, you have to remember that it is in the mountains. With that said, any internet is good internet.

AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon phone internet were not that great. The best was the Verizon Jetpack coming in at 42.5 downloads.

The Verizon cell service had two bars. I forgot to check AT&T’s cell service.
