The Land of Oz opened in 1970 as a Wizard of Oz-themed amusement park on top of Beech Mountain. It closed in 1980 but that didn't keep the "cast members" from returning for a reunion every fall. There has been a resurgence of interest in The Land of Oz in the last few years and in addition to being open for one weekend every fall, it is now open on select weekends over the summer and you can even hire private tours of Oz for parties.
