Woodland Retreat is situated on a secluded 1-lane 1-way gravel road, which allows you to loop around the neighborhood. This “loop” provides a stress free way to navigate the mountain without worrying about oncoming traffic. Woodland Retreat can be accessible with any vehicle, as there are no steep curves or climbs. However, 4-wheel drive is encouraged during the winter months.
