North Carolina Vacation Rentals

North Carolina Vacation Rentals

by Staff Writer

Many people choose the mountains of North Carolina for their summer vacations. Off the beaten path and at a significant elevation, the mountains are always peaceful and cool. Even in the summertime, when temperatures at sea level can be sweltering, it’s always gentle and mild up in the mountains. Perhaps that’s why over nine million people each year come to visit Smoky Mountain National Park.

The beauty of the North Carolina mountains is unique and impressive. Unlike the mountains in the Western part of the United States, the Appalachians are low and wet enough to harbor extensive forests and lush greenery, giving extraordinary views from the few breaks in foliage along the mountains. These vistas are the reason that filmmaker Michael Mann decided to film the scenic The Last of the Mohicans in the North Carolina mountains, even though it was set in upstate New York!

The Smoky Mountains also offer great hiking. Mount Mitchell is the highest peak in the Appalachians, as well as the tallest US peak east of the Mississippi River. Miles of trails run through the mountains, including the famous Appalachian Trail, which follows some of the higher points through the Smokies. The Smoky Mountain National Park is only 15 minutes’ drive away from us, and many guests enjoy hiking nearby in the Deep Creek Area of Bryson City, too.

The mountains of North Carolina offer so much to do for every member of the family. You’ll want to make sure that you can stay somewhere comfortable and affordable so that you and your family can get the most out of your North Carolina experience. At Smoky Mountain Country Club, you can stay in luxury (and within walking distance of the best restaurant in the mountains) at an affordable rate. Give us a call today to make reservations for your next vacation!
