North Carolina

North Carolina Information

More and more people are discovering what makes North Carolina, and North Carolina Vacation Rentals, a fantastic vacation spot; for one thing, the Tar Heel State has two mountain ranges running through it, the Appalachians and the Great Smoky Mountains. Mount Mitchell, located in the Blue Ridge Parkway, at 6,684 feet, is the tallest mountain in the eastern United States. North Carolina also has areas of gently rolling foothills and of course the pristine beaches of the Atlantic coast, warmed by the Gulf Stream. The state also boasts a rich American history, from the 16th century, when the first English settlement was built, to 1903, when the Wright brothers ushered in the era of flight at Kitty Hawk. For some fun in the water, Lake Norman is a great decision, as it has more than 520 miles of shoreline and fun for kids and adults alike. Lake Norman, also called the “inland sea,” glistens on the landscape between Charlotte and Statesville. To discover your perfect North Carolina vacation, visit the North Carolina Travel page.
