Travel + Leisure Golf Magazine Ranks The Cliffs Among America’s Top 10 Golf Communities
Travelers Rest, SC (January 26, 2005) – In its January/February 2006 issue, Travel + Leisure Golf magazine rated The Cliffs Communities in the highest eschelon of golf communities in the United States, according to location, range of amenities, and standard-setting service.
Editor in Chief John Atwood says, "Increasingly, people are interested in living well, surrounded by their favorite pastimes. As golf communities grow in popularity, we'll continue to provide comprehensive insights on the best ones in our annual guide."
According to the magazine, “In compiling [the Top 100 list], we began with the premise that the golf needed to be great: top course designs, impeccable maintenance, easy access for members. But we also recognized that a great community encompasses much more than golf, both tangible (superior housing, flawless facilities) and intangible (a sense of identity, breathtaking sunsets).”
Included in the Top 10 of the Top 100 U.S. Golf Communities, The Cliffs personifies the stringent criteria of “Extraordinary golf, a great location, attention to detail and paradigm-shifting service.”
“Recognition from such an esteemed publication, and sharing the Top 10 with some of America’s most storied clubs, is truly an honor for us,” stated Scott Beville, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing for The Cliffs. “It’s proof positive Jim Anthony’s vision – creating an incomparable place for families to live at the heart of the Carolinas – is one that has been embraced and lived out to the fullest by our Members.”
“It’s great to receive this kind of accolade knowing the commitment we have to our Members’ quality of life. Additionally, with the level of the future investments we’ve planned to meet our clientele’s expectations of service and quality, we will work hard to enhance the value of our reciprocal membership that greatly distinguishes The Cliffs among luxury master-planned communities,” Mr. Beville continued. “Every day in our organization, we take up the exciting challenge of improving what is already a private club membership unrivaled anywhere else in the country.”
