Or you could consider the Boone/Blowing Rock, NC area. There is sure to be snow in the mountains. They usually begin making snow around Thanksgiving or earlier if temps are cold enough.

Most campgrounds in the "winter" areas (read snow) close about Dec 1 and don't reopen until the snow melts in March or April. If it is cold enough to snow, it's cold enough to freeze the water pipes, therefore, they close.
