The size of the school doesnt necessarily have anything to do with how selective it is. All of the Ivy schools are quite small! Also, there are lots of famous small colleges such as Middlebury, Amherst, Williams, Wesleyan, Harvey Mudd, Davidson, etc etc You might not be able to get into one of the elite schools, but there are many more that you can investigate.
Your GPA and ACT are above average and I think there are hundreds of smaller colleges that would be happy to have you as a Freshman. There is a lot to be said for attending college in a small school where you can get to know all your classmates and have a more intimate and less intimidating college experience.
USe the collegeboard.com and princetonreview.com websites to pick out some colleges that you might match with. Some that I like a lot are Colby, Wheaton in Massachusetts, Guilford, Stonehill, Fordham College at Lincoln Center, Warren Wilson.... each of them has its own character that makes it unique.
Good luck. I think you will be able to find a place that is just right for you!

Oh, for sure. If you live in the northeast the SUNY system is terrific. sorry, its the only small state schools I know of. But I'm sure you can get into some great colleges.
