I recommend that you stay in the higher altitudes to escape the heat and heavy humidity (humid air sinks to the lower altitudes because of the water weight). If you go too far north or west and leave the mountains you will hit the heat again. Areas near lakes pick up a great deal of humidity but at the higher altitudes it does not feel as oppressive.
Without knowing your exact locale, I can recommend Graham County and Swain County, NC; North Georgia mountains; and Eastern, TN in the mountains. These all have places of natural and historic interest to explore and the fishing is outstanding.
Franklin, NC, Dillard, GA are on the US 441 route in the mountains.
