Summit Haven at Balsam Mountain Preserve | Exclusive Lodge with Golf & Hiking Trails
Summit Haven at Balsam Mountain Preserve offers the perfect escape—a mountain lodge where nature and luxury meet within a stunning community of 4,400 acres, including over 3,200 acres of protected land. Whether gathering for a family reunion, reconnecting with friends, or seeking a quiet retreat, this home offers the space, views, and comfort you need for a truly memorable stay.

Summit Haven comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests and features an open, spacious layout with high ceilings that blend seamlessly with the surrounding natural beauty. Enjoy a cozy evening by the fireplace or step onto the deck to take in the crisp mountain air.
Three well-designed bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite, and three and a half bathrooms give everyone space to relax. Outside, multiple covered and screened porches create the ideal setting for stargazing, sharing meals, or simply soaking up the peaceful atmosphere.
