This elk has been in the town forever, but this past year the elk has been refurbished and installed as the centerpiece of the town. This elk frames Appalachia in the sense of this small town pride in the mountains. In the background you can see the historic elementary school and rolling mountains and once again the North Carolina pride of the state flag surrounding this elk even though about 100ft to the right there is another flagpole with the same flags raised high and proud. This is where every child in this town went to school in this picturesque location but as time rolls on is Appalachia move on too? #appalachianechoes](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/10821/43d8e3a4-45db-4b8d-a710-8a970ef6997f.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) The Greene 6 min drive \- 3.2 miles - ![Ever wonder where the Land if Oz is?

I can only imagine how magically it would look like decorated for Christmas. The master bedroom is worthy of Santa himself. We had 13, 16, and 22 yr olds with us and all were equally impressed with the cozy lodge feel. The ONLY downfall was the hot tub malfunctioned days before our arrival and was unavailable for our stay but Billy was great about communicating so we were aware prior. With so many great places to stay we usually pick somewhere different each year for our tree hunting trip, but all voted we’d love to come back here again (can’t wait to tryout that deck/outdoor fireplace/hot tub combo! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3d859ada-56a8-4ffd-86bc-7f5668f39304-1764795681561.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2d1a8801-e4bf-4b59-a832-6929946eb9af-1764795689324.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rachel S.
