Garnet Ridge Preserve is POA-led mountain community, where owners can build their dream home with sweeping vista views of the Smoky Mountains in a refined and private setting.

The best words to describe the philosophy of Garnet Ridge Preserve is our commitment to excellence… a strong determination and desire to create a superior living environment for generations to come through the preservation and support of the natural character of the area surrounded by national forest land.

Our commitment is to create a community with careful attention to detail to preserve our beautiful natural setting, and to allow our property owners to revel in the tranquil surroundings of the Blue Ridge Mountains. 

The hard part will be deciding what to do first

Western North Carolina is a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts. In fact, Outside magazine named this area one of the top 100 communities for outdoor recreation. Just outside your doorstep, refreshing walks and hikes await. Biking, horseback riding, kayaking, fly fishing and whitewater rafting opportunities abound, making these mountains truly unique.

Several trailheads leave Garnet Ridge Preserve and travel through the pristine Nantahala National Forest, which borders 85 percent of the community.
