Activities/ Amenities at the Bluffs

Those who have purchased home sites at The Bluffs most often site a "return to nature" theme about their futures. They suggest that they expect to begin to spend more time outdoors, and that they were looking for a first or second-home setting that would accommodate that expectation.

We have listened to those owners as The Bluffs has been developed, and have taken a more natural (rather than "manufactured") approach to amenities. For instance, in order to keep Homeowners’ Association dues to a minimum, we develop amenities as the users in our community grow---rather than developing those amenities merely to sell lots. For the same reasons, we are initially focusing on developing amenities which do not require daily management ($$$$).

Our natural surroundings---a 30,000 acre, 52 mile-long lake supporting all fresh water sports; 3 major river tributaries; the Piedmont Mountain Range; Little River Canyon (deepest canyon east of the Mississippi) offering both scenery and excitement; the Cherokee Indian heritage; an interesting Civil War history with many landmarks and relics; etc. all contribute to a rich array of activities just outside our gates. In addition, the proximity of dozens of golf courses in our region; a world-class sporting lodge (see www.ChattokeeLodge.com) located three miles from The Bluffs; and the amenities of several nearby state parks can all serve to help fill up our owner’s activity cards.

There are plenty of activities suited to a variety of interests and physical abilities at The Bluffs. For instance, there are:

Trails

Almost a dozen miles of developed walking/biking/horseback riding, 4-wheeler trails to explore;

Community garden with rows of vegetables and corn, wooden stakes supporting plants, and a background of houses, trees, and utility poles.

Community Gardens

Community gardens and an orchard providing home grown vegetables, fruits and berries, as well as an opportunity for The Bluffs neighborhood gatherings;

Wooden dock with a covered seating area extending into a calm lake, with a lamp post and greenery in the foreground, and trees and cloudy sky in the background.
