Which town to stay in between Washington DC and Asheville NC?
Hi,
I am planning my trip for next year. I'm staying in Arlington and then want to travel the Skyline Drive and end up in Asheville, NC. Mapquest gives me a drive time of 8 hrs. So I would like to stop off for one night, but I'm not sure where?
Any ideas?

Very close to the VA/NC border on the Parkway there are a couple of wineries Villa Appalachia & Chateau Morrisette & there are many cabins, B & B's etc. in that area. Look around Galax, Hillsville, Mt. Airy. Many things can be found by searching 'Blue Ridge pkwy' on the web. Although I'm not crazy about the wine @ Chateau Morrisette there restaurant is very good. Villa Appalachia has more Italian leanings & I believe they both have web-sites as well.
