Balsam Mountain Preserve was recognized by Links Magazine in its "America's Premier Properties" edition. Balsam was given special recognition as one of the Best Communities For Outdoor Pursuits, along with communities in Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, and Montana, just to name a few. Links noted, "Sure, golf is an outdoor sport, but it can't match the exhilaration that comes with activities like mountain biking, whitewater rafting, or hunting. Many of Links' Premier Properties provide access to lakes, rivers, trails, and mountains, and if you're just as apt to pack your rod and reel as your golf clubs, check out one of the following 14 properties".
The magazine went on to say specifically about Balsam, "At Balsam Mountain Preserve, residents can explore the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains on their own, whether hiking the 34 miles of trails or fishing the 38 miles of streams, or they can benefit from the expertise of the on-site naturalists".
Thanks to Links Magazine for this exciting and prestigious recognition!!
