Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Creekwood) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Creekwood. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 36.0090, Longitude: -80.4581 In this case, the coordinates for Creekwood have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
