Coming up from Alabama you will likely go up to Chattanooga and on to the Smoky Mountain National Park area. Have you looked into Campgrounds in the area yet? There are many nice ones to choose from. The National park itself is beautiful with only a couple places to drive to. Most of it is a hikers paradise though. Cades Cove and Clingmans Dome are two that I can recommend. Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge have lots of touristy things to do. Great restaurants and dinner shows.
I will second the Biltmore Estate in Asheville. You can spend 2 full days there. Beautiful estate and the house is quite interesting.
