Zebulon, N.C.

Zebulon—just 25 minutes from downtown Raleigh—is a vibrant, welcoming community packed with tons of activities ranging from sporting events to art galleries. Baseball lovers can root for the home team and catch a classic minor-league baseball game with the Single-A Carolina Mudcats throughout the spring and summer at Five County Stadium

Zebulon’s core business district is surrounded by historic residential neighborhoods that consist of homes built in the Victorian, Craftsman and Colonial Revival styles. The historic downtown is a must-see, with tours available of the gorgeous Zebulon Town Hall, a 100-year-old building hosting the work of local artists. Another notable and interesting place to visit downtown—whether you're a musician or not—is the world-class MacLellan Bigpipes, the only bagpipe manufacturer in North America.
