Trillium

In the indigo mists of the Blue Ridge Mountains lies the residential oasis of Trillium, a Lake Glenville real estate development ideally located along the southern shores of a crystal clear lake and the impeccably groomed Trillium Links championship golf course.  For 15 years, one of few North Carolina lake communities has been a welcome respite for the body and soul in the Highlands North Carolina area and is one of the most beautiful golf courses near Cashiers NC. 

Trillium is a family wonderland that exists at elevations of 3,500 feet and encompasses 750 acres.  This carefully crafted private community with rustic mountain homes takes advantage of exceptional, dramatic mountain views and dazzling lakeside living along the sandy shores of Lake Glenville. Trillium Links, the award-winning 18-hole championship golf course, was designed by senior PGA tour player Morris Hatalsky. Trillium is proud of their proven friendly lifestyle that is warm and welcoming. 

Lake Glenville was born in 1941 by the damming of the west fork of the Tuckasegee River, creating the highest and largest lake east of the Mississippi with depths of over 100 feet. This 1,400 acre lake sports 26 miles of shoreline and is a water playground that provides scores of recreation for the area including boating, waterskiing, and fishing.  Nearby Cashiers, “the Yosemite of the East” is known for tumbling waterfalls such as 411 foot Whitewater, novel high altitude bogs, sheer granite domes and lush valley floors sure to please the nature enthusiast.
