Forest Hills Neighborhood

Our neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. With 2 one-lane streets, be prepared to give way to other vehicles. We enjoy feeling like we are remotely in the woods, with the reality of being close to most everything! The green tree canopy against the Carolina blue sky is a relaxing get away from the busyness of life. We are centrally located, one mile off of Hwy 105 in Boone. Quick access to Hwy 105 and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
