I can recommend 441 with a stop in Waynesville NC. Nice CGs there and close to Asheville and the Biltmore Estate. If you have never been there you might consider a visit.
A word of caution on 441 and Cherokee NC....its quite "hilly" and has some pretty good grades and turns. I also caution you if you think you can go through the Smoky Mountain National Park on 441. If you are not experienced at true mountain driving while towing then DO NOT GO THAT WAY. Its steep and twisty....first up....then down. I see RV's with burned up brakes every time I go through there. I-40 out of Waynesville is the way around it and that's still hilly through the "gorge" but not daunting. You can handle it.
