Blue Ridge Mountain Community
From fishing on the various creeks and streams, 15 miles of ATV trails that criss-cross the property, a giant sports lawn for any manner of a pick-up game, plus horseback riding via our partnership with Chetola, the High Country has never been more active than it is at BRMC. And when you’re ready for a lazy day, take a drive along the 50 miles of the Blue Ridge Parkway that encompass these magnificent mountains. Stop for a selfie with the mountains and enjoy the crisp clean air that only the High Country offers.
The High Country is home to some of the most explore-worthy attractions in the Southeast. Brave the top of Grandfather Mountain’s Mile High Swinging Bridge or get robbed on the Tweetsie Railroad by renegades and hoosegows.
Spend time at the home of denim king, magnate and philanthropist Moses Cone exploring the craft shop, demo center, and carriage trails, then make memories with kids and grandkids while fishing his well-stocked 16-acre trout lake. As the day winds down, treat yourself to the old-fashioned candy barrels at the historic Mast General Store, then drive through picturesque Blowing Rock on your way home to your own heavenly haven at Blue Ridge Mountain Club.
