Laurel Ridge Golf and Country Club, along with their gated log home residential community, The Smoky Mountain Retreat (named “One of the Top Ten Best Log Home Communities in North America” in 2005 by Log Home Living Magazine), present an exquisite and unique lifestyle in the spectacular Great Smoky Mountains. Physically and conveniently located on the edge of the historic town of Waynesville, North Carolina, breathtaking views, altitudes between 3,000 and 4,500 feet, and wilderness surroundings enhance and surround the  unique homes in this 1,000 acre Haywood County community.

Known for 30-mile long-range views and for preservation of  the natural beauty of the land, The Smoky Mountain Retreat, a gated community enhanced by gently sloped, paved roads, features one and two-acre home sites. Also a part of The Smoky Mountain Retreat is The Village, consisting of log cottages, each situated on three-quarter acre homesites.
