North Carolina Town Named 'Most Charming Small Town' In The Entire State

North Carolina is filled with stunning small towns across the state, destinations that offer a quiet beauty by letting the natural scenery, friendly atmosphere and unique attractions shine bright enough to draw you in and experience something you may not get in a bigger, bustling city.

According to a list compiled by AFAR , the "most charming small town" in all of North Carolina is Black Mountain , praised for its stunning mountain views, availability of live music and exciting and "whimsical" galleries.

Here's what the site had to say about the most charming small town in the state:

"Set in the painterly Blue Ridge Mountains, this folksy town of around 8,500 is only a 20-minute drive east of Asheville but feels a world apart. After ambling around Lake Tomahawk or hiking the 9.5-mile, out-and-back Graybeard Trail in nearby Montreat, enjoy a weaving or pottery exhibit at the Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center, shop for handcrafted jewelry and candles at Seven Sisters Craft Gallery, or go into carb-load overdrive at the Blue Ridge Biscuit Company."
