Balsam Mountain Preserve Features a Nature Center
Private…Secluded…Convenient…Natural?
Golf is set in harmony with nature at a choice spot near Asheville, North Carolina. And Balsam Mountain Preserve even features a Nature Center to show the developer’s commitment to green living. The center resulted from the creation of the Balsam Mountain Trust, a non-profit organization charged with documenting and preserving the natural and cultural history of Balsam Mountain. Director Michael Skinner and Naturalist Blair Ogburn bring extensive knowledge to the high-quality exhibits and the many programs that help residents explore the nature around them.

Programs include guided hikes and mountain bike rides as well as birding for nesting yellow-billed sapsuckers or any of their other woodpecker cousins. Amazingly, 68 percent of the land on the preserve is set aside for conservation. There are just 354 home sites at this 4,400-acre preserve “community with nature.”
