Default Nice mountain getaway...

If you're looking for a great place in the NC mountains to go, try the Old Edwards Inn & Spa in Highlands, NC. My wife and I just got back from a weekend there, and it's our new favorite place in that setting, bumping the Grove Park Inn out of top spot.

You won't regret it.

Looks like a beautiful spot, but I don't see any campgrounds nearby. May have to pass
this time.


I think if you go through Franklin and out to the west you might find
one on Rt 28. I think I remembered seeing camping That is pretty rural
tho (no cell, no WiFi)
We loved it. We "camped" here.

I don't remember seeing any close in to Highlands, but there are certainly campgrounds all over the NC mountains. We drove 28 on the way home, great drive. And yes, tons of cool cabins to rent.

We ate at Paoletti's Italian restaurant in Highlands Saturday night. The Osso Bucco was awesome.

We were all over that area and I do seem to remember people camping on
the forest service land around there. It wasn't "improved sites" but
John can be self sufficient for a while I imagine. We saw people with
slide in campers and tent folks.
We do tend to find out of the way places because we hike.

I favor any campground for Herring that has no cell or wifi.

He really doesn't like someone pointing out his lies. I don't know why the 'cell'
though. Surely he doesn't think I'd bother to call him!
