Live water so pristine that you could drink from it! Imagine that first summer night with the open bedroom windows in your new home... listening to your very own private natural bold creek singing Appalachia's lullaby as you nod on off to the best sleep you will ever experience on earth. There is a nice path carved out to walk and see the falls. The covenants are light, even affording you the opportunity to stay in a camper as your home breaks ground and continues through completion.
