Where is your favorite city/town in N. Carolina?

Last week I spent 5 days in Franklin NC, visiting my best friend/sister. It was absolutely beautiful there. Her house is along side a wide running/rushing creek, the weather was cool in the mornings and evenings, and the drive up to her house breath taking. It was so relaxing and funn!!! We spent two days in Asheville shopping...another beautiful town.

Where is your favorite place in North Carolina?

Cashiers is beautiful, but getting a bit touristy...I think it is loosing it's charm because of it....sad..........

Black Mountain, just east of Ashville on I-40. Small town. There is a great B&B there, The Red Rocker Inn. I have not stayed there, but have been there for breakfast several times & it was great!

I think I have heard of Black Mountain. Next time I am there (hopefully soon) I want to check out the small towns, like Black Mountain. I want to find the "off the beaten path" places and not follow the herd. Any suggestions?

Highlands, Wilmington. I haven't been to either, but they are on my list.

North Carolina is beautiful. I lived in Raleigh NC for 14yrs. It was 3hrs from the mountains, 2hrs from the ocean, and 2hrs from the big city of Charlotte. If you wish to stray away from the mountains and beaches, you may wish to put Chappel Hill on your list of must sees. The University of Chapel Hill has a beautiful campus there and the town is very quaint with lovely tree lined streets and historic homes. And if you are ever in Durham NC, you should take the time to visit the Duke Gardens of Duke University.
