Rest for a moment under the hydrangeas on the antique bench and breathe in the fragrance of climbing roses, blue hydrangeas, and lilies. In the evening, toast the day around one of two fire pits. Lower level or creekside - while relaxing in Adirondack chairs adorned with embroidered pillows. When it’s cold or rainy, snuggle up in front of the porch fireplace on beautiful wicker chairs, tucked behind weatherproof curtains. Truly, this property has it all: heavenly mountain views, a creek and waterfall, lush gardens, edible herbs and vegetables, and above all - peace. Whispering Falls is not just a home, but a sanctuary created with love and care.
