Cresswind at North Georgia is a gated 55+ active adult community sitting within the master-planned Twin Lakes area, and it offers a lot of choices for people who want to stay busy or just relax. You'll find a golf cart path system winding through the community, and there are plenty of walking, jogging, hiking, and biking trails so people and pets can enjoy the outdoors. The community has both indoor and outdoor pools, including a resort-style pool, plus an indoor pool with lap lanes for those who like swimming year-round. There's a big Cresswind Clubhouse for people to gather, use the billiards, or join in on events, and the party room or ballroom works well for bigger get-togethers. The on-site full-time Lifestyle Director plans clubs, events, concerts, and activities, so there's always something going on, whether it's fitness classes, social clubs, education, or entertainment.
If you like sports, there are tennis courts, bocce ball courts, a sport court, and especially the large pickleball facility, which is known as the largest private pickleball center in Georgia, with over 30 courts, a viewing area, and space for tournaments. For fun outside, there's a firepit zone, amphitheater, event lawn, gathering space, and a kayak/canoe launch pad at the lake, where you can also fish, kayak, or paddleboard. Two lakes sit in the community and Lake Lanier's nearby, making boating and lakeside activities easy. The pet-friendly attitude helps people with pets feel welcome, and the dog park is handy.
Community safety is a priority, with a manned gatehouse providing 24-hour security. The community's planned layout keeps walking and golf cart travel simple, and you see outdoor gathering spaces and parks along the way. People can hang out at the community lounge or join craft classes in the arts and crafts room. The fitness center offers strength training, cardio equipment, and a yoga studio, plus a SmartFit Training Center with EGYM Smart Circuit Training. There are also places to unwind like the spa zone.
Home choices range from about 1,300 to over 2,500 square feet, with floorplans from two to five bedrooms, single-story or with basements, and options for extended garages, lanais or outdoor kitchens, and bonus rooms for offices, media, or studies. Many homes are move-in ready or still under construction, and the on-site Design Studio helps personalize everything from appliances to flooring or cabinetry. Some homes allow for multigenerational living, with extra space and flexibility.
