Summer Hill is a gated waterfront community on the northwest side of Lake Glenville, about seven miles from the village of Cashiers. Wide paved roads lead past a secured entrance into a heavily forested setting. Custom homes sit either right on the water or tucked into the woods for privacy.
Every owner has deeded lake access. Life here revolves around Lake Glenville: morning walks to the pavilion, afternoon swims, and evenings out on the boat. There is no club membership required, so owners enjoy the lake and the community amenities without club dues.
Summer Hill is not a golf community, but there are courses close by. Trillium Links & Lake Club offers a private links-style course on Lake Glenville. In Cashiers, High Hampton offers its restored Tom Fazio course.
Lake Glenville covers 1,470 acres, and the whole lake is open for boating, waterskiing, fishing, and paddling, with marinas and boat rentals around the shoreline. Cullowhee and Western Carolina University are just to the north, with concerts, theater, and college sports. Cashiers is about seven miles south for dining, shopping, and the Village Green, and Highlands is just beyond. The Nantahala National Forest surrounds the area with hiking trails and waterfalls.
Summer Hill offers custom lake homes, both waterfront and wooded, along with homesites for buyers who want to build. Lots range from lakefront parcels to private wooded settings, all with access to the community dock, beach, and pavilion.
