Maybe while driving down California's coast, you were blown away by Carmel-by-the-Sea with its pristine beaches and colorful, cottage-style houses.

Or you visited Edgartown, Massachusetts, a decade ago and were so smitten, you've returned every summer since.

Maybe you adore the Lowcountry town of Beaufort, South Carolina, with its picturesque marshes, historic mansions and oak trees covered in Spanish moss.

Or perhaps you grew up in the remote Alaskan fishing village of Sitka and think the world deserves to know about its natural beauty.

Don't keep these stunning, special places to yourself. We want to know about your favorite small towns in the country. In the comments below, tell us the name of the town and what makes it worth visiting. If you have photos, upload them to the Dropbox below.
