Mt. Mitchell, NC is the highest point east of the Mississippi, and well worth the visit. You can (sadly) drive most of the way to the summit. There is a restaurant on the road to the summit, and some tent pads for camping with a decent view. I spent memorial day weekend there in 1998- loved it. Uncrowded, gorgeous weather. It does, however, sit in a dry county... so finding after-hiking beer was a challenge!
