Sherwood Forest is an enchanting planned development of homes in the Cedar Mountain community near Brevard, NC. It was developed in 1957 as part of a residential Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program and continues to be committed to the protection of the natural environment and mountain ecosystem.

Nearby Cedar Mountain is a charming mountain hamlet with options for dining and perusing the workshops of local craftspeople and artisans. This is an optimal location for home buyers, with the entrance to Dupont State Forest just three miles away. Downtown Brevard is a scenic nine-mile drive down the mountain.

A naturalist’s paradise, this 1000-acre community is bordered almost entirely by protected woodland. Over 300 acres of forest are set aside for the enjoyment of community members, knitted together by more than 20 miles of hiking trails. Along these trails, hikers will find streams, waterfalls, mountain summit views, grottos, and even several vintage Prohibition-era still sites. In addition to exploring on foot, residents enjoy fishing and canoeing on five different lakes, contributing to the community garden, and other classic amenities designed to complement the existing natural resources.

The 18-hole, par three golf course is situated along the banks of the scenic Little River. On the fairways, you’ll find wildflowers and other native plantings, and even the occasional llama caddy. The Robin Hood Barn, a historic remnant of the working farm that once occupied the land, is a venue for summer picnics, member meetings, and more. A heated swimming pool, tennis, and shuffleboard courts round out the recreation options in this unique community. The neighborhoods host many social activities including spring wildflower walks, water aerobics classes, group yoga, winter soup suppers, family picnics, golf tournaments, and more.
