Family trip to NC, late March, where to stay?

Posted by: Kristinesonja on Feb 17, 13 at 11:51 AM Posted in: United States

My family of 4 is traveling from South FL to NC for Spring Break. Previously, we enjoyed a March trip to TN for hiking and horseback riding in/around GSMNP while staying in a vrbo in Townsend. Great trip.

Last July, we spent a week in SC enjoying the parks & hikes along Cherokee Foothills on Hywy 11. Drove up to Ashville for Biltmore and down to Greenville for July 4th.

THIS March, I'd like to plan a trip to NC for late March.I'm looking towards the central and western mountain areas. Perhaps staying near or west of Ashville.

We want to go back to the Biltmore. but I'm looking for suggestions of
a) area to stay in
b) sights to see

We like to hike the trails. Some things that jump out at me when I flip thru books: Fontana Dam, can we get to snow at Beech Mtn for FL kids to try skiing, Blue Ridge Parkway, what else for 10 & 12 yr olds? Suggestions?
