Located just off of Interstate 81 in the Appalachian Mountains, the campus is 331 acres (1.3 km²), and is roughly delimited by a railroad track on the North side and the college's golf course to the South. There is a scenic area in the middle of the camplus, with a duck pond built on the foundations of a springhouse, where the denizons of the original campus refrigerated their food.
