I posted this to the mailing list, but thought I’d post it here, as well.
Could “Harlan” be a synonym thereof? (not, of course, that Harlan could be described as “idyllic”, but it is out of touch…)
Brigadoon – An idyllic place that is out of touch with reality or one that makes its appearance for a brief period in a long time.

Appalachian gothic fiction writer - my works reflect a love of literature flavored by the darkness and magic residing in these ancient mountains. In my spare time, I Sim, I TikTok, I journal, but I always have a very strange sense of humor. I have lived away from the mountains and lived deep in the mountains. I currently live in Central Kentucky with my life partner and his cat. The mountains, their culture, their superstitions, their particular magics, will always be in my blood.
