Why Build in Waleska

The TIH Perspective on Waleska.

Waleska sits seven miles northwest of TIH headquarters and is anchored by two well-known features: the gated Lake Arrowhead community, and Reinhardt University. The Lake Arrowhead community is a long-running relationship for TIH — we have been part of the four-builder approved group inside the gates for years, and three of our most recent professionally shot homes are inside this community.

Beyond Lake Arrowhead, the Waleska area offers larger rural-residential lots, mountain views in the higher elevations toward Pickens County, and proximity to Reinhardt University. Many TIH Waleska buyers are choosing the area for a primary residence with vacation-home character — large covered porches, walk-out basements, screen rooms, outdoor living focus.

The mountain-leaning plans in our 2026 collection (the Kennestone, the Gentry) work especially well for Waleska lots. Stone-and-siding exteriors fit the visual character of the area; vaulted living rooms and walk-out basements work with the typical lot slope

Questions About Building in Waleska

Is TIH approved to build inside Lake Arrowhead?

Yes. TIH is one of the four builders approved by the Lake Arrowhead community. We have been part of the approved group for years and have delivered multiple recent homes inside the gates.

What does a typical Lake Arrowhead build run?

Currently $400K to $800K, though Steve notes these homes should really be $800K to $1.5M given current market positioning. Deals were extended on some of the recent photographed examples.

Can I see a finished TIH home in Waleska?

Sometimes, depending on owner permission. The five recently photographed Ball Ground and Lake Arrowhead homes are featured in our gallery and in individual case studies linked from the gallery page.

What about Reinhardt University-area lots?

Active market. Smaller lots than Lake Arrowhead but excellent for buyers with university connections or who want a smaller-footprint custom home in a walkable area.
