Beautiful area just at the base of the NC mountains.
NC in general is a great state. The only state east of the Mississippi you can drive from the highest mountain, to the shore in a day and never leave the state.

You might want to qualify that, as there are 15 other states on the east coast where one can do the same.

My statement is 100% accurate, Mt Mitchell is the highest point East of the Mississippi .. and NC has its own shore ..
