The magazine spotlighted several dining establishments in Travelers Rest, including Topsoil, Monkey Wrench Smokehouse, and Tandem Crêperie & Coffeehouse. Additionally, it highlighted lodging options such as the Swamp Rabbit Inn TR and the Hotel Domestique.
According to the magazine, Travelers Rest offers an array of activities for outdoor enthusiasts.

Expressing delight at the recognition, Travelers Rest Mayor Brandy Amidon stated, “This is an amazing accolade that solidifies what we who live and love TR already know. We are honored to receive this recognition embodying the very roots of our community. Our name literally says it all! Travelers Rest is a place to pause, rest, reset and enjoy a true small-town community.”
