Waterfall at Lake Burton Clayton, Georgia
If you’re looking to move to Northern Georgia you may want to consider moving to Waterfall at Lake Burton. Many move to this area because it is the part of Georgia which rests deep in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. At the Waterfall at Lake Burton you can experience the scenic views of mountain peaks in the distance as you rest along the shores of deep crystal blue Lake Burton.
As the terrain winds past the lake it makes way to the Chattooga River’s flow which is perfect for white water rafting, fishing, boating, and other water sports. Of course, the nearly 150,000 acres of National Forest which surround the community add a surreal glow enticing those who want a serene backdrop in the ultimate utopia.
The golf course, which is a private, member’s only club, is set amongst the most majestic backdrops in Georgia. The play is challenging and fun but the atmosphere ensures the most enjoyable of games as you relax in paradise. The course was designed by Scott Pool and is set with the nearby lake beckoning you toward it. An added challenge is presented as the Waterfall’s namesake, a stunning waterfall, which is known for tempting a player past the par 3 of the second hole on the course. It was meant to cause a welcome distraction though it can be difficult for serious players to keep their game sharp.
The country club setting of the Waterfall community was designed by the collaborative efforts of the founder of Eagle’s Landing in Atlanta and the Ritz-Carlton’s former CEO, Bill Johnson. Located on 400 acres, the Johnson family used the land as a place to train their horses until it was decided it would be turned into a golf paradise. The nearby Chattahoochee forest offers one more reason residents simply cannot say no when it came to purchasing their homes.
The Waterfall boasts a 60,000 foot clubhouse. Residents and club members will enjoy tennis, spa treatments at the European spa, indoor swimming, and fine dining. Golfers can be prepared to be challenged as they play with hills, natural barriers, and more along the 18 foot stretch.
Only 200 homes will rest within this gated community limiting the amount of residents. Finding a home to purchase can be incredibly difficult because of this. Those that can afford it are lining up so homes will not be available for long!
