A Setting That Speaks for Itself

From the moment you arrive, the difference is clear. There’s no traffic noise, no barking dogs, and no light pollution — just the quiet of the mountains, cool evening breezes, and skies filled with stars. Mornings bring breathtaking sunrises over the ridge, while a spring-fed stream runs year-round beside the home.

The property extends all the way to the top of the mountain, where a trail leads through old-growth forest — perfect for hiking, exploring, and enjoying wildlife in its natural habitat.

Even with all this privacy, you’ll still find yourself part of a welcoming community. Neighbors are friendly and respectful, and across the road you’ll find a general store and campground where visitors and locals gather.
