(HENDERSONVILLE, N.C.) – Champion Hills – Western North Carolina’s premier private golf community nestled in the stunning Blue Ridge Mountains – comes in at 22nd in the U.S. in Club + Resort Business’ ranking of the “Top Fitness and Wellness Facilities” in the U.S. for 2023.
A leading trade publication based in Cleveland, “C + RB” covers the operations and management staff at country clubs, city clubs, yacht clubs and resorts that operate club-like facilities. Its “Top Ranked” initiative for fitness and wellness highlights properties with the “Top 50 Fitness and Wellness” facilities and programs, as judged independently by a panel of general managers from several leading clubs.
“We’re once again grateful and honored by this accolade from a highly respected trade publication like Club + Resort Business that has such a deep knowledge of the private club industry,” says Champion Hills Director of Wellness Mackenzie Jones. “Golf, tennis, hiking and other outdoor sports and pursuits are integral to our members and overall club culture.”
Champion Hills’ Wellness Center and Pool Complex are located next to its stunning, mountain lodge-style clubhouse complex overlooking the peaks of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Replete with the latest cardio and strength training equipment, it houses a spacious room for yoga, spin, TRX and other group classes. A hydro spa is also available and popular with members for relaxing their muscles post-workout.
Criteria for inclusion in the Top Fitness and Wellness Center included data on fitness and spa facility size and the size of retail and/or food-and-beverage facilities related to fitness/wellness; average member usage, both on a monthly-visit basis and as a percentage of the total membership; equipment value; classes and services offered; and staff size (both full- and part-time).
