An upscale mountain lifestyle being discovered in Cagle-Fredonia

The quaint, rural character of the area has always attracted residents wanting a little more peace and privacy.

But it’s still got some character to it of a rural area.”

The park includes hiking and camping through 19,000 acres of Appalachia, with waterfalls and rock formations to view. However, within the community itself, much of the outdoor land is private, with areas like the Dunaway Hunting and Fishing Club open only to members. “There’s not as much public land as there used to be up there,” Hamilton says. “But there’s still some hunting and fishing going on up there.
