What are the area attractions?
There are really too many to name. Within 20
minutes, you can be at the largest ski
mountains south of New England (Sugar and
Beech Mountains). In the immediate area are
several golf courses, world class whitewater
rafting, trout fishing, hiking, canoeing,
horseback riding, 4-wheeling and
gem mining. You are six miles from downtown
Spruce Pine. You can be in Banner Elk in 20
minutes and Boone, Grandfather Mountain and
Blowing Rock within 40 minutes for more
shopping, restaurants, movies and
attractions. Additionally every weekend
seems to have festivals for music, crafts,
food or to just celebrate the seasons. There
is truly something for everyone regardless
of age or interest.

Is there a homeowners association?
A homeowners association (HOA) has been established. The HOA will eventually be responsible for the maintenance of the common areas. During the development phase of the project the HOA will be operated by the developer and the developer will subsidize the operating budget for the HOA to ensure that the common areas are properly maintained.

Can I choose my own builder?
Yes, however in order to protect long term values and the integrity of Hawks Crossing, the developer and the
architectural review board (pursuant to the
covenants and restrictions) have established certain standards to make sure that any improvements made are consistent with quality mountain and Adirondack architectural styles.

Is there a minimum home size I must build?
Yes, In order to protect the values in the community we have established minimum square footage requirements. A one story home must be at least 1500 square feet heated and a two story home must be at least 2500 square feet heated (with a minimum first floor area of 1300 square feet heated).

Who owns the waterfalls?
The Twin Falls is owned by the community as a common area. It is there for all property owners to enjoy. There will also be other common areas for picnics, hiking and enjoying the great outdoors.

Who maintains the roads?
As a private community, the HOA will have an ongoing schedule to maintain the quality of the roads and coordinate any snow clearing with a private subcontractor, as needed. Individuals will be responsible for their own driveways.

Are pets allowed?
Common domestic pets such as dogs, cats, birds are allowed. No breeding or raising of livestock is allowed within the property.
<< back to top |
Can houses be rented out?
Yes. However it is the developers' intent that the community be substantially “owner occupied”. Rentals have a tendency to decrease property values. Our rules will call for a minimum of a seven (7) night stay in order to discourage short term transient rentals, but to give ownership the opportunity to benefit from longer term rental income, if so desired.

When will home sites be available?
We are taking reservations now. As the project is being phased and platted, depending upon where you purchase, you may be able to close as soon as 3 months and as far out as 12 months. Please consult with our representative for these specifics.

Do I have to join a private club or recreation center and are there dues?
No. With all of the area golf courses, clubhouses, spas, etc. there are plenty of options for the homeowner without having to burden you with exorbitant fees for maintaining and staffing a clubhouse on premises, which almost never gets used.

Is there cable television?
Not yet, although there are indications that it will be available in the future. Homeowners will need to subscribe to satellite television services.
