About this property

Balsam Preserve Private Golf Resort | Luxury w/ Mtn Views

  • Welcome to your mountain escape in the Blue Ridge! Wake up slow, pour a coffee, and watch the morning light roll across the peaks. This cabin was made for big families and groups who want to gather in one place and make memories. Cook outdoors, share a meal watching the sunset and spend the days playing golf. Tucked inside the gated golf community of Balsam Mountain Preserve, it feels a world away yet sits close to Sylva and Waynesville!

    ✦ Stunning mountain views
    ✦ Large porch with dining area
    ✦ Outdoor kitchen for cooking together
    ✦ Office with bookshelves
    ✦ Access to Balsam Mountain Preserve amenities (additional fee)
    ✦ Five bedrooms and six bathrooms for up to 13 guests

    Balsam Mountain Preserve sits between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Great Smoky Mountains on 4,400 acres, where most of the land is protected forever. That means quiet, green, and peaceful in every season. Just down the mountain, Sylva and Waynesville are full of local shops, breweries, and restaurants, and the Saturday farmers market in Sylva is a favorite. Outdoor days are easy from here, with waterfalls, hiking trails, trout fishing on the Tuckasegee River in nearby Dillsboro, and sunset views along the Blue Ridge Parkway.

    ✦ 18 hole Arnold Palmer Signature golf course, plus a practice park with a driving range and short game area
    ✦ Ruby Valley Fitness and Wellness Pavilion with a heated pool, fitness center, and spa rooms
    ✦ Tennis and pickleball courts
    ✦ More than 40 miles of private hiking trails
    ✦ Equestrian center with guided trail rides
    ✦ Dark Ridge Creek campsite with a covered pavilion, grill, fire pit, and trout fishing
    ✦ Nature Center with a Birds of Prey program
    ✦ On site dining at the Summit House, Mine Tavern, and Boarding House Marketplace

    Just down the mountain, Sylva and Waynesville are full of local shops, breweries, and restaurants, and the Saturday farmers market in Sylva is a favorite. Off the Preserve, outdoor days are easy too, with waterfalls, rafting and tubing on the Tuckasegee River in nearby Dillsboro, and sunset views along the Blue Ridge Parkway.

    ✦ 20 minutes to downtown Sylva for breweries, shops, and restaurants
    ✦ 25 minutes to Waynesville for farm to table dining and local breweries
    ✦ 35 minutes to Cherokee, the gateway to Great Smoky Mountains National Park
    ✦ 50 minutes to Asheville
    ✦ 30 minutes to Waterrock Knob for hiking and sunset views, plus easy Blue Ridge Parkway access
