About Bent Tree

Perhaps you have finally tired of the traffic, the noise and the thickening air of the city, and long for a quieter, more genuine place in a wooded, natural setting, a place where there is still room for personal friendships. At the same time, you don’t want to give up good shopping, the sports, or the theaters, so you would like to live within an hour of a city like Atlanta.

Then Bent Tree is for you. Although it may be difficult to break away from your ties in the city, you’ll never want to return once you’ve come to love this pristine place.

Unparalleled Beauty . . .

Love the outdoors? Nature was most generous to Bent Tree, awarding it seven scenic, majestic mountains surrounding a beautiful natural valley more than two miles wide, covering over thirty-five hundred acres of elegant forests, parks and greenbelt areas. Half a dozen cold, clear streams tumble down from the mountains, spilling delightfully over several waterfalls. Bent Tree is well blessed with deer and wild turkey, with bear and mallards and wild Canadian geese. Laurel, Dogwood, Sourwood, Tupelo and Honey Locust are everywhere in this wooded paradise.

Residents Enjoy Year-Round Activities . . .

For avid golfers, Bent Tree’s championship, eighteen hole golf course is one of the most beautiful in the nation, enhanced by the enchanting beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Relax and enjoy a beautiful pristine mountain lake covering 110 acres. Fed by rushing trout streams, the clear, deep and cold waters are kept stocked with bass, trout and bream — a fisherman’s paradise. Swimming, boating and sunbathing are popular on the white sand beach. Overlooking the beach and lake is a pavilion where Bent Tree residents enjoy barbecues, dances, festivals and other fun events.

For the equestrian-lover, Bent Tree’s stables boards several fine horses which are groomed by a resident stablemaster. Boarding is available for members. Miles of quiet riding trails wind through laurel thickets along scenic mountains.

Residents enjoy fine dining at the 19th  Hole restaurant, owned and managed by Bent Tree as well as dances, dinners, and special events held at the lovely, spacious club and fireside lounge. All facilities are reservable for private use.

Swimming is always a favorite past-time at the club’s family Olympic pool  as well as the adult pool at the main clubhouse.

Take a hike along one of our many nature trails, and enjoy a number of picturesque waterfalls.
