Customer Reviews

Pretty good guide

We’re in the beginning stages of planning a trip to Ashville, NC and wanted a physical book to do some research and bring along. It’s a good start but we’ll need to do more online. In combining both north and South Carolina together, the author had too much ground to cover. It would have been better to do two books well rather than one book okay.

Great guide book for visitor and resident alike

If you need a vacation, the Carolinas has it all. From beaches to mountains; big cities to quaint small towns; pro sports and college sports; history and the arts. If you want to explore the Carolinas, Hidden Carolinas by Catherine O'Neal is a great guide book for visitors and residents alike. Hidden Carolinas starts with a description of the geology and history of the Carolinas. It includes a calendar of events and some gorgeous pictures. From there, it divides the states into ten regions. Each of the regions has your typical travel guide fare - sights, lodging, shopping, dining, parks, etc. What sets this book apart from the others is the "hidden" gems found in each section. I've lived in both North and South Carolina and have vacationed in South Carolina for over 20 years, so I thought I knew a lot about both states, but with this book, I've discovered lots of new places to explore. I was lucky enough to snag this Ulysses Press Publication through Mini Book Expo.

Great book of information

This book is worth getting if you are visiting for the first time and If you are a resident of North Carolina. It has a lot of great places to visit and things to do with the family. I have lived in North Carolina for 28 years and there are still thing that where new to me. It has hidden places listed that are not usually visited by tourist. Dinning,night life, parks nature and amusement and lots more. I don't think the author left anything out. It covers the mountains, the coast and everything in between. Highly recommended for any traveler or vacationer.
