We live in a big state with a multitude of hidden gems only the locals know about, and this charming mountain park is one of them! (Here are 10 more!) The next time you’re in or near Cashiers, be sure to check out this 13-acre park carved right into the middle of the community. Locals and seasonal residents alike would love to keep it to themselves! Take a peek below and you’ll see why!
Cashiers is located on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau at approximately 3,500 feet. The cool summertime temperatures bring tourists galore to this mountain haven for fun and relaxation.
Among the many unique features the park doles out is an unexpected series of sculptures. The rock-like sculpture below is 17 feet high and 17 feet wide. And there are many more to admire as well.
From gardening events to Christmas on the Green and an annual arts festival that features artists from all over the country painting the surrounding landscapes from the lawn, the events are unique and ideal for reconnecting with the outdoors and enjoying the festivities.
Village Play, the playground, was designed by local kids and built by their parents (and others). It took 1,500 local volunteers just five days to build this playground oasis.
There is much to love about this hidden mountain park nestled into one of the most beautiful plateaus in the southern end of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Have you discovered it yet?
The Village Green is located at the intersection of Hwy. 64 and Hwy. 107 in Cashiers, North Carolina. It’s accessible 24 hours a day. Entrance is free, unless a special event requires admission. Learn more on the official website.
