The food in NC is great. They have some of the best Barbecue anywhere. Try to find some mom/pop restaurant that serves great Breakfast. Ask around. I find one called Rick's Country Store and they had Biscuits about the size of a Softball and covered them with gravy. I wish I was going that time of year you will have a great time.

Anybody going to that area in Shelby there is Bridges Barbecue and is the best place to eat anywhere!!

This is the cabin that we booked. it was a few minutes outside of Maggie Valley. We never saw that creek in the pics but there was a nice size river running at the bottom of the driveway. It was so peaceful and very clean and cozy inside. We went the first weekend of November and they had just released a bunch of farm trout in some of the rivers. We fished one day around Bryson city and one day in the Cherokee trophy waters. It was spiritual standing in those creeks snagging 2 ft long rainbow trout and beautiful brook trout. The guy above can be found on Instagram and he made the trip awesome. Very knowledgable and enthusiastic about fly fishing and very attentive to tying on new flies and helping my wife with her fish. He even gave a short tutorial before heading into the water.

The Biltmore is sick, but the tour inside is kinda stuffy and a bit boring. Very awesome place, and I'm a rover enthusiast so I would advise the Land Rover experience. The wine tour was awesome and the wine was very tastey. Gorgeous estate. I can't remember the names of the restaurants but I would suggest just going on a walk through the square. It's a fairly small town With tons of cool places.

I love waterfall hikes and heard there were a bunch of them, but we didn't get to do that. I did hike about 3 miles on the AT just to say I got on it. Overall it was my favorite location to visit, and I have been all over the US.
