It's easy to wax eloquent about Asheville, a mountain town in eastern North Carolina that is both thriving arts center and springboard on to some of the state's best natural scenery.
Located in the tobacco country of eastern North Carolina on the improved channel between Wilmington and Fayetteville, the facilities are equipped for day-use, boating and picnicking. Shad fishing is popular, but swimming and camping are not permitted.
