Snuggled into the Blue Ridge Mountains, our sanctuary provides a private, peaceful retreat for our residents, full of adventurous hikes, fresh air, spring water & all of the benefits of a life in the country.

It is our hope that we can provide a loving home to all of our residents and fill their final chapter with joy - be that space to roam, a comfortable bed to rest or a warm embrace.

“We who choose to surround ourselves
with lives even more temporary than our
own, live within a fragile circle;
easily and often breached.
Unable to accept its awful gaps,
we would still live no other way.
We cherish memory as the only
certain immortality, never fully
understanding the necessary plan.”

―Irving Townsend
