It would be an easy two day trip with a fifth-wheel over to Western North Carolina--not just Asheville, but the entire area. If you have not been there a good overnight on the way would be Appomattox with an afternoon visit to Appomattox Courthouse.
Of course this would all depend on where you have already been. There are many other possibilities.
As for history, we enjoyed a visit to Appomattox, Yorktown, Jamestown, and Monticello in September. But you have likely been to those places. Maybe even live nearby.
One other possibility of almost equal distance would be to visit the Bluegrass area of Kentucky--around Lexington. Nice camping at the Kentucky Horse Park Campground north of Lexington. If you go that route, a good overnight might be at Stonewall Jackson Resort State Park in West Virginia.
I could probably give you dozens of other possibilities -- OK here's one: the Lancaster, PA area in the Amish countryside. Lots of nice parks there. We stayed last at Beacon Hill in Intercourse, PA.
That's probably enough from me.
