The Asheville Attraction
The
beauty of Western North Carolina inspired George Vanderbilt
to build the nation's largest home and inspired Frommers to name Asheville
one
of
the
world's most
unique
and enticing destinations for 2007. Clearly, Asheville makes an impression
not easily forgotten.
The same qualities that make life at Falcon Ridge so appealing are the features that attract people to Western North Carolina and Asheville in particular. It's the rare combination of mountain retreat with the best of urban living. Everything you could possibly need is here...superb medical facilities and hospitals, excellent education, a thriving business environment. Then, there are cultural attractions: music, entertainment, art and magnificent architecture. Fresh mountain air seems to foster creativity.
But perhaps most important are Asheville's natural resources that make possible a life of recreation that's as great as all outdoors. From rock climbing, biking, skiing, hiking, white water rafting and kayaking to the more tame pursuits of golf and tennis - Asheville's mild four-season climate and recreational options make for a thrilling combination.
Just like George Vanderbilt, you will be inspired to build a lasting legacy for your family at Falcon Ridge.
