Linville Ridge A tranquil mountain community near Charlotte by ellen Dicus W ith sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and mild temperatures, Linville Ridge offers a serene retreat, whether you’re planning your retirement or searching for the perfect home away from home. Just over a two-hour drive from Charlotte Douglas International Airport, Linville Ridge is a family-owned and -operated golf community offering residents an opportunity to choose from single-family estates, mountain cottages, townhomes, or homesites ready for a custom build. The 1,800-acre property near Blowing Rock, North Carolina, features a recently redesigned golf course by Bob- Become a Member In addition to its traditional membership options, Linville Ridge’s new Regional and National membership categories appeal to golfers living outside a 50-mile or 200-mile radius of the community.

In addition to the 18-hole course, residents and members enjoy a range of recreational choices. Think scenic hiking trails, a heated swimming pool, eight Har-Tru tennis courts, and two croquet courts. Then they can rejuvenate with a deep-tissue massage at the full-service spa. And when it’s time for food and refreshments, residents can choose from five distinct on-site restaurants with fine or casual dining. In truth, they hardly need to leave the comfort of their hideaway, given all the amenities; however, a grocery store and more dining options lie just outside the community gates. Most of all, the spectacular mountain backdrop sets the stage for a host of ways to relax. From a lively round of golf to sipping a cold beverage on the clubhouse terrace or at the community pub, residents and members of Linville Ridge find it easy to unwind. usairwaysmag.com september 2012 83 http://www.linvilleridge.com http://www.usairwaysmag.com
