Privacy:
Our cabin is surrounded by trees on three sides. We are in a small community (Shadow Mountain) of cabins and ours sits above the others with a great view of Grandfather Mountain. We are approximately 3650 feet above sea level. There is a small stream that runs beside the cabin as well as a campfire area on the property. A lnice waterfall is just a short hike down the road. Hike to the top of the Shadow Mountain behind our cabin for more breathtaking views and a beautiful mountain top lake. Our guests have started a collection of walking sticks from hikes in the neighborhood...hope you'll add yours!
