A welcome retreat for any city dweller, Brunswick Forest can be found just minutes away from Wilmington, North Carolina, a community filled with luxury town homes and spacious custom homes for all tastes. Boasting 4,500 acres of lush landscapes and forest area, Brunswick Forest is home to several gardens, trails, a world-class golf course and recreational activities that cater to all tastes and ages. When you want to escape the busy city lifestyle and indulge in rest and relaxation, Brunswick Forest is an idyllic place to enjoy the best that North Carolina has to offer.
Located just a short drive from Wilmington, North Carolina, Brunswick Forest is home to the Cape Fear National golf course, a deluxe Clubhouse, and a unique River Club, a community boating and fishing center. The golf course is one of the most popular points of interest, a magnificently designed course nestled within the oaks, pines and magnolias of the surrounding forest. The Clubhouse is where you can meet with friends and neighbors for social activities and events – head here to host a dinner party, enjoy formal gatherings or just relax on the weekend for a quick lunch. The River Club overlooks the Town Creek area, a place where you can explore the local wildlife, take a canoe out on the river, or just walk across the boardwalk to capture some spectacular views of the river.
If you prefer some light recreational activities during the week, make your way to the state-of-the-art fitness and wellness center to relax in the sauna, spend time in the whirlpool tub, or even get a massage. Aerobics and exercise rooms are also outfitted with modern gym equipment and classes for all fitness levels. If you prefer some fast-paced games and activities, the fitness center is also home to bocce and shuffle board courts, along with six hard-surface tennis courts.
One of the unique amenities available at Brunswick Forest is the Community Garden, a garden reserved exclusively for residents with a fruit orchard, vegetable garden and greenhouse. Whether you want to grow your own flowers or just explore some of the regional plants, this is a beautiful place to pursue your gardening hobby.
