The Cliffs Cottage at Furman

The Cliffs Communities 
Named CNBC's 2007 World's Best Development

A collection of eight private, mountain-lake communities in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, The Cliffs Communities is located amid hundreds of thousands of acres of protected forests, crystal lakes, streams and waterfalls, and four distinct seasons of comfort.  Tiger Woods, the world’s #1 golfer, could have chosen anywhere in America to design his first course.  He chose The Cliffs at High Carolina.  Gary Player, the International Ambassador of Golf and World’s Most Traveled Athlete™, was so inspired by the beauty of The Cliffs and surrounding areas that he will move his family and corporate headquarters to The Cliffs at Mountain Park.  He has routinely referred to the area as “The Switzerland of America.”

The Cliffs is committed to protecting the natural habitats and ecosystems in all of our communities and their surrounding areas—both here in the United States, and abroad at our destination properties. In fact, The Cliffs announced plans this Fall to implement The Cliffs Center for Environmental Golf Research, a facility designed to positively impact and enhance golf course development and maintenance worldwide by implementing environmentally sound practices that ensure quality course conditions, playability and community well-being.  The Cliffs encourages Property Owners to protect the environment by providing Green Design Guidelines as a guide to build a sustainable home.  By continuing to make the effort here today, we will help protect these irreplaceable properties well into the future, so that years from now, our children’s grandchildren will share in the same priceless discoveries and experiences that we have.

The Cliffs Communities is always seeking and implementing new "green" initiatives and are excited to be an integral part of the first-ever environmentally sustainable Southern Living Showcase Home, located at Furman University.  We invite you to learn more about The Cliffs.
