Wildwood Forest is a small, exclusive community in the Smoky Mountains, nestled against untouched forest. The community has ample opportunity for walking in the neighborhood. There are a tremendous number of options nearby for exploring the spectacular outdoors (Whiteside Mountain is just a mile away) and for dining out in Highlands and Cashiers (menus await your perusal in our dining guide).
