Lots of choices. A couple I've been to that are easy to find are Linville Gorge & the Shining Rock Area.
I'm sure some others will chime in.
And when you have more specific questions about areas that sound good to you, I'm sure there will be people here that can help.
I too will something make and joy in it's making
Where in NC? ANYWHERE. The entire western part of the state is literally littered with places. I don't even know where to begin. For what kind of place are you looking? Hike-thru? Car camping?
"The Road goes ever on and on,
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can.
Pursuing it with eager feet
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say."

I understand were you're coming from, being out of state & planning a visit into unfamiliar territory.
I was going to suggest linvllegorge.net but HawkEye beat me to it.
I think you'll find as more maps & answers to questions there as you will for any specific place I know of in NC.
Great resource & a beautiful place to spend some time. You can do anything there from day trip to car camp/base camp & day hike to backpacking.

The Gorge awaits you.......

Pisgah National Forest between Waynesville and Brevard is also a great place. Lots of trails and places to camp. Depending on when you will be down here, you will need to account for weather. The Blue Ridge Parkway is a good access point for National Forest land across much of WNC. It gets closed during winter weather. Just something to be aware of.
Nowhere to hang in NC. No trees. Just a bleak flat treeless plain. (Kidding of course, just about anywhere is a good spot!). The NC State Parks are another good resource for you to look into.
