WELCOME TO THE NORTH CAROLINA
HIGH COUNTRY

There are so many hikes, adventures, shopping and delicious restaurants - be sure too schedule some time to relax!

Hemlock Hill Cabin is easily accessible throughout the year.  Located less than a 0.25 miles from Highway 221 South.  Neighborhood is quiet, residential, and beautiful to walk if you continue past our cabin.
 
Neighborhood is paved and plowed regularly during the winter.  We have a circular driveway, which is relatively short and at a slight incline.

In general, extra care should always be taken on all mountain roads during the winter and AWD/4WD should be considered in the event of snow/ice. Inclement weather is unpredictable and conditions can change quickly.
