The Cliffs at Glassy

 

Overview

The Cliffs’ first community, The Cliffs at Glassy offers a rustic elegance of natural grandeur that set the bar for all of The Cliffs’ communities to follow. Located on the Cherokee Foothills Scenic Highway, The Cliffs at Glassy extends 3,500 acres at 3,200 feet above sea level on Glassy Mountain, one of South Carolina’s natural landmarks.

Undoubtedly the South’s most prestigious mountaintop address, The Cliffs at Glassy offers a spaciousness and tranquility one hardly finds in today’s world. Private and pristine with dense groves of mountain laurel. Deer, turkey, and the occasional red fox. The cool, dove-gray granite reflecting the sun. Glassy’s love affair with nature is what has drawn families here since 1991.

The Tom Jackson golf course, named Fourth Most Scenic in the Nation by Golf Digest, weaves its way like a lush ribbon through dense hardwoods, dotted with incredible homes and home sites. Glassy offers the passionate golfer the ultimate experience – South Carolina’s only mountaintop course, bentgrass from tees to greens, with fifteen holes offering 75-mile views. An amenities suite designed by architectural, land planning, and ecological experts make The Cliffs at Glassy an icon for gracious living.
