CATALOOCHEE RANCH

H
ere are seven destinations that
make getting off the electronic
grid easier. A few are officially
unplugged, while offering so
many engaging activities that
visitors are eased off the electronics without realizing it.
Virginia: Playing, Wild and Tame at
Mountain Lake
Mountain Lake Lodge
115 Hotel Cir, Pembroke, Virginia
540-626-7121; mtnlakelodge.com
Yes, you can get cell service atop Mountain Lake's Bald Knob, but don't expect it
within the thick stone walls of the lodge
or on the trails of this 2,600-acre property.
Relax-that is the idea. In the spirit of a
true getaway, Mountain Lake doesn't even
have TV in the rooms. But there's plenty
to do. Mix traditional resort activities, including daily scavenger hunts, outdoor
movies, guided hikes, hayrides, shuffleboard and yard games, with splashy adventures such as the resort's new high-its
65-foot Sky Slide.

Mile-high Cataloochee
Guest Ranch (North
Carolina) welcomes
guests to reconnect with
nature on the peaks of the
Great Smoky Mountains.
