Audubon Classic Sanctuary
Mirimichi is the first golf course in the United States to receive official Audubon Classic Sanctuary certification by Audubon International, a non-profit environmental education organization.
The Cherokee Indians say when we show respect for other living things, they respond with respect for us. This simple yet powerful creed embodies the philosophy that brought Mirimichi to life—to honor the land and the living ecosystem that Mirimichi shares with nature.
Mirimichi is committed to more than just world-class golf. The property is maintained at the peak of efficiency and with state-of-the-art environmentally friendly practices—from providing a sanctuary for plants and wildlife to being a natural filter for cleaning storm water.
The result is a beautiful golf destination that comfortably protects the balance of nature with features that are environmentally forward-thinking.
