Charlotte is a Perfect Four (seasons)!

Actually I think we all feel Charlotte is perfect especially at this time of year. As the summer turns to fall and our minds turn from warm days and gorgeous beach sunsets to crisp fall football weekends and mountain foliage. I know sounds like some sappy commercial but it's true Charlotte is so close to the mountains and the beach that you will once again fall in love with the change of seasons!
Blake says it best....
"Whether it is the beach or the mountains you like, Charlotte is surely close to both. I love my city life, but it is nice to be able to go away for a short weekend to a beautiful beach or a nice mountain inn. I love both of the beaches I have visited......Wrightsville Beach in North Carolina is laid back the quaint town within walking distance. While Charleston, South Carolina on the other hand has such great history to learn about in the downtown area and then there are so many beautiful beaches to choose from close by. We love the Wild Dunes resort. And remember with temperate weather the beaches are really a year round attraction for Charlotteans!
If you are up for more of a getaway into the mountains, I must recommend the Grove Park Inn. It has a amazing golf course and spa with wonderful accommodations and great restaurants to choose from, you don't even need to leave the resort if you don't want to. Asheville, is right there known for its funky art and eclectic restaurants. And don't miss the Biltmore Christmas a must do! There is something for everyone in Asheville and best of all you could do it in a day trip if you wanted to from Charlotte. Inn, this is about 15 minutes from the Grove Park and full of great history and tours to choose from. They also have wonderful gardens, a winery, horse back riding tours, even some off-roading in SUVs if that is your pleasure. There is something for everyone in Asheville and best of all you could do it in a day trip if you wanted to from Charlotte."
Thank you Blake. I think you summed up very well why so many people find Charlotte to be the perfect place to build a career, raise a family or just enjoy the four seasons!
