46. War Eagle, Arkansas
The famous War Eagle Mill was built in 1832 and has been destroyed and rebuilt three times, yet it’s still in operation today. During the fall, the town hosts an elaborate craft fair that DIY lovers won’t want to miss.
47. Creede, Colorado
This historic mining town is like walking into an old western movie. In fact, Johnny Depp shot scenes here for the action western Lone Ranger. The downtown shops and surrounding nature adventures allow you to enjoy a trip that’s as busy or quiet as you’d like.
48. Abilene, Kansas
This town’s claim to fame is that President Dwight D. Eisenhower grew up here, which is why they have a library and museum dedicated to him. Another can’t-miss attraction is Great Plains Theatre, which used to be a church.
49. Boone, North Carolina
It’s appropriate that this town is named after American pioneer Daniel Boone, since most visitors come to hike and explore the local Blue Ridge Mountains. The town is also full of bluegrass musicians and Appalachian storytellers.
50. Milton, Delaware
You don’t have to choose between different bodies of water here: It’s located on the banks of the Broadkill River and is just a few miles from the Delaware Bay. But some people might find it even more exciting that it’s home to the famous Dogfish Head Brewing Company.

It’s nice to know they haven’t destroyed all our history
and quaint little villages.
I am having a hard time deciding where to visit first. Being a history buff, I would love to visit them all!
Places you should consider for this:
Ligionier, PA: In the Laurel Highlands of Western Pennsylvania. It has a super quaint town square, with many unique shops, the revolutionary war Ft. Ligioner, and Joes Bar, an old sportmans club with more animal heads on the walls than you will ever see anywhere else.
amazing pictures
So happy to see my hometown – Boone, North Carolina. The picture shown does not do justice to this beautiful mountain town with an impressive college, many lovely homes and churches.
