Community Description

Champion Hills is a unique private, gated community boasting a championship golf course deemed as a “Mountaintop Masterpiece” by Tom Fazio. The combination of the stunning Western North Carolina mountain setting and state-of-the-art golf facilities is one of many reasons this course has been consistently ranked #1 among year-round courses in Western North Carolina. Sitting at an elevation of 2,500 – 3,000 feet, Champion Hills is blessed with a mountain climate, offering four distinct but temperate seasons that skirt the extremes of heat and cold. This community is characterized by a casual yet classy country club lifestyle with an active club membership and thriving golf culture. Member owned since 2001, the Champion Hills Club serves as the hub of the community; its respective golf community has long been respected as the epitome of excellence in Western North Carolina golf culture. Champion Hills was initially imagined as a mountain retirement community, but over the years it has evolved, with nearly 75% of the community’s 450 home sites built upon and over half of the residents residing here year-round.

Amenities

Champion Hills’ suite of amenities is impressive and enviable. Starting with a security gate boasting 24/7 security patrol, residents can take heart knowing they are safe within the community’s gates. Of course, excellent golf amenities are abundant here as well, with Champion Hills being consistently among the top golf courses in North Carolina. Tom Fazio’s expertly designed par-71 championship golf course, short game practice area and driving range, and newly renovated 25,000 square foot clubhouse are incredible to experience. The course itself was intentionally designed to be enjoyable for every skill level, with five sets of tees, holes featuring wide landing areas, and others situated between forest obstacles and a strategically placed bunker. The signature challenge at Champion Hills is the mountain terrain that creates a change in vertical slope for each stroke–going from an uphill shot to a downhill shot. On this course, you will find 14 downhill holes, including the signature 9th hole with its 125-foot vertical drop from the tee box to the green. But don’t let the steep slopes discourage you, this community remains golf cart friendly and playable year-round. There is no requirement of membership to the golf club for property owners, but those who wish to join will be part of a group of over 250 golf members who enjoy a very active schedule. 

We could go on forever about the golf amenities available at Champion Hills, but prospective residents should know about the many other incredible amenities offered by this community as well. Health and Wellness conscious individuals will enjoy the fitness center offering classes, personal training, a sun deck, heated pool and hydro spa, as well as state-of-the-art fitness equipment. The two lighted Har-Tru tennis courts will provide hours of enjoyment for tennis enthusiasts as well. Hikers and trail joggers can spend hours exploring the nearly 18 miles of marked and well-maintained walking trails that meander through the property as well.
