Located at 3,510 feet in the Roan Highlands and bordered by the Cherokee National Forest, Ripshin Lake is among the highest-elevation private lakes in the eastern United States—prized for its natural beauty, serenity, and legacy of preservation. Lot 53 is part of a limited release of just five lakeside parcels within this longstanding private community. Ownership includes both your individual lot and an equal share in Ripshin Lake Corporation, which manages and protects the lake and surrounding lands. A $63,000 equity membership is required to join and may be paid over a 5-year period, making this both a lifestyle and legacy investment. Utility infrastructure is already in place, with underground electrical conduit installed by Mountain Electric, offering convenience and readiness for future construction. The community has also recently completed dam and infrastructure enhancements to ensure compliance with modern environmental standards—supporting safe and sustainable enjoyment for decades to come. Established in 1958, Ripshin Lake is home to a small, intentional community that values stewardship, outdoor recreation, and privacy. Members enjoy fishing, kayaking, and direct access to nearby hiking, including trails that connect to the Appalachian Trail. Lot 53 is your opportunity to build a custom retreat in one of the region's most protected and picturesque enclaves.
