These destinations are not just beautiful but also offer unique experiences that you won't find in the more crowded national parks. Below, we’ve highlighted the top six spots.
1. Blue Ridge Mountains, Georgia
The Blue Ridge Mountains in Georgia offer a serene escape with picturesque landscapes. "We stayed at the Blue Ridge TOA River KOA, and it was beautiful. We got to fish right there on the river," says Barry from the video. The cool mountain air and morning mist create a magical atmosphere. Plus, you can go white-water rafting and enjoy a peaceful fishing trip. And if you're not into fishing, you can still enjoy the boat trip—it's a win-win!
The misty mornings are perfect for pretending you're in a horror movie, just make sure not to scream too loud and scare the fish away!
2. Moundsville, West Virginia
Moundsville may have started as a disaster for these RV travelers, but it turned into an unforgettable experience. "Once we finally got there, it was a campground perched on top of a mountain with amazing views," says Darlene. The Grand View Park offers not just scenic beauty but also an Adventure Park with high rope walks and zip lines. And don’t miss the Palace of Gold, a stunning structure built by the Hare Krishnas.
Who knew West Virginia had its own version of an Indian palace? Next thing you know, they'll be serving curry at the local diner!
3. Asheville, North Carolina
