Mountain Air
Mountain Air is a stunning, private mountaintop golf community perched nearly a mile in the sky in the North Carolina Blue Ridge Mountains. Located atop Slickrock Mountain and just 35 minutes from Asheville – a vibrant and charming city – Mountain Air puts you in the heart of a unique combination of natural beauty, culture and Southern charm. Just minutes away from Mountain Air, Burnsville is alive with local mountain culture, hospitality and rich history. Discover the area’s world-renowned arts and crafts or the many forest-hidden waterfalls, winding trails and glimmering trout streams. And Mountain Air is less than 10 miles from Mount Mitchell, the highest peak in the eastern United States where you’ll never feel closer to the clear, starry skies and the sunrises will never be brighter.
At 4,919 feet of elevation, Mountain Air boasts the highest tennis courts, swimming pool, clubhouse, owner’s lodge and airplane runway for 1000 miles in any direction…and summer temperatures rarely venture into the 80’s. The Mountain Air Clubhouse combines the beauty of the mountains and the comforts of home offering fantastic, fresh Blue Ridge Mountain cuisine for the discerning palate and a feast of sweeping views for the eyes. Built from native stone and wood, the Clubhouse literally blends into the side of the mountain.

With elevations up to 4,600 feet, you’ll love playing the championship 18-hole golf course at Mountain Air, the third highest golf course east of the Mississippi. It’s an immaculate course of 6,425 yards, par 70, and a slope of 134 from the men’s tee. From highest to lowest point, the course drops a remarkable 900 feet in elevation, and the hang time on some tee shots is nearly 10 seconds. Architect Scott Pool carved the course into the contours of Slickrock Mountain, weaving through dense hardwood forests and outcroppings of granite and around streams, waterfalls, and ponds. It’s a course that not only challenges but always exhilarates.
Mountain Air’s residential choices are as diverse and distinctive as the forests that surround them. Premium homesites, single-family residences and luxury condominiums afford inspiring views of surrounding mountains and valleys, or lush woodland settings, while many look out upon the magnificent golf course. Each Mountain Air neighborhood offers easy access to amenities and outdoor spaces.
With a comprehensive array of amenities and a seasoned operating team already in place, a well-established group of owners, and beautiful residences to move into, Mountain Air allows you and your family to begin your mountain experience today.
