Shadybrook Lane is a small, but wealthy, community surrounded by a forest owned by the residents. It's named for the distinctive shade-covered path that winds through the forest beside a small stream.

The forest is surrounded by a low fence with “No Trespassing!” signs.

The majority of the residents are members of an extended family that makes their living producing and selling fine wine. There's a medium-sized vineyard on the same plot of land that provides the grapes for their business.

The leader of the village is Gilda Shylton.
