Nestled in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains of Cashiers, Canyon Kitchen is located in one of the most beautiful settings in the country, framed by verdant forests and meadows, encircled by thousand-foot granite cliffs. The relaxed setting of Canyon Kitchen is complemented by the detailed craftsmanship of the Barn’s traditional post and beam architecture; For more information on Canyon Kitchen, please visit http://lonesomevalley.com/ About Lonesome Valley The land that is now Lonesome Valley was purchased by E.H. Jennings in 1895, and it has remained in the Jennings family for four generations. Today, Lonesome Valley is an 800-acre, private, gated community just north of the Blue Ridge Escarpment. When fully developed, fewer than 180 homes will be built, with the remainder of the land held in conservation. Lonesome Valley is committed to simplicity, family and the preservation of nature, with responsible deed restrictions and thoughtful architectural guidelines that ensure the Jennings’ legacy will be protected for future generations.
