A true wilderness resort unlike anywhere you've ever been, and yet it feels like "home". In the mountains of northwestern North Carolina, amid thousands of acres of family land in Wilkes County, we've been careful to protect the magnificent wild beauty God put here for us to enjoy. Our luxury cabins and cottages are hidden "behind the scenes" to preserve the wildlife habitat for animals and people. Enjoy hiking on Elk Ridge, wading in the creek in the meadow, swimming in our pool, fishing in our lake, strolling on West Ridge, rockin' on the porch, visiting with the folks down at the stables, or just enjoying the amazing number of stars in the night sky. Bring your horse or we'll help you secure one and enjoy a scenic trail ride. We're close to the ski slopes, Blue Ridge Parkway, Grandfather Mountain, Appalachian State University (ASU), Tweetsie Railroad, Kerr Scott Dam & Reservoir, and the towns of Wilkesboro, North Wilkesboro, Lenoir, Blowing Rock, and Boone. Whether you're planning a vacation, weekend getaway, honeymoon or family gathering, we can fit your needs. Come join us if you're visiting the area for one of our many festivals or events such as the MerleFest, Brushy Mtn Apple Festival, or Highland Games.
