Today, we’re celebrating the incredible life and legacy of an Appalachian icon. 🦋💛

Dolly Parton has never forgotten where she came from. From the mountains of East Tennessee, she carried the heart of Appalachia with her - through her music, her generosity, and her lifelong commitment to helping children dream bigger.

So we want to celebrate her in a way that feels especially fitting: with books. 📚

From August 26 through September 1, New River Getaways will donate $25 for every new reservation booked to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, helping provide free books to children from birth to age five.

🏔️ Book an Appalachian getaway.
📚 Help put books into little hands.
💛 Celebrate a legacy that has given so much back.

Here’s to big dreams, good books, and the mountains we call home. 🦋
