Places of Distinction
There’s something about this place…
It could be a city, a state, a country, a region. Or maybe it’s none of the above, and it’s just something as simple as a peaceful mountain lake. Whatever or wherever it is, these locations have a unique sense of place, distinct to them, that earns them a special spot in our hearts.
