The Little Town That Rocks

My husband and I have been traveling through and to Asheville, North Carolina for a number of years. I used to spend summertime there as a kid in camp! We've enjoyed the area as an easy go-to spot becuase of the RV and lodging options. Things have been getting a lot pricier the last few years and that has 'forced' us to explore the surrounding areas. Not a bad thing at all just wasn't what we were used to doing. We were pleased to find Hendersonville, Rutherfordton and Black Mountain. These have been staples of the area's culture and history for centuries I guess, but each has grown up with the infusion of new generations of explorers - like us! We were a bit dissapointed to land in Black Mountain during the slow season. I admit that this was our own fault, but still there was little to do and most of the shops seemed quieted. But it is so beautiful there and the people couldn't be nicer. I guess that this should be a review about the site. Honestly, I just lined to the chamber site and they seem to do a good job. As far as Black Mountain itself, I'd probably give it a 5/5 if there was more to do off-season. We're headed back this summer and possibly during leaf season. Maybe an updated review will be in order!
