An interesting little town is Floyd, VA. They have a very nice hotel, Hotel Floyd, and the town has a great little general store. Very funky, fun little town. The hotel had a really good live band - mostly bluegrass - that gave a nice little set - about an hour - while we were there. Also, as others have noted, Blowing Rock is a place you really should not miss.
I've been in Floyd. It's a quaint little town. There are lots of shops that have crafts. Blue Heron pottery is there. I went there after going to the Old Fiddler's convention in Galax, VA.
