What's Close By? Spotlight: Duke Forest Al Buehler Cross Country Trail

Great gravel running and walking course located on the perimeter of the Washington Duke Golf Course.  Within 2 miles of 7 Silverbush Court.

What's Close By? Spotlight: Washington Duke Inn and Golf Club

During our time in Durham, we spent many evenings relaxing and enjoying a drink at “Wa-Duke”.  At just 2 miles away from 7 Silverbush Court, we highly recommend zipping over around dusk to enjoy the southern-style sophistication and ambiance.   From slowing sipping your cocktail of choice under their majestic oak trees in the thick of summer to snuggling up near their wood burning fire place with hot totties when the winter weather hits, it’s a spot that can’t be missed.

What's Close By? Spotlight: Hope Valley Country Club

Just around the corner and in less than 1 mile walking, you will arrive at Hope Valley Country Club.  Hope Valley Country Club is Durham’s original country club and it is thought to be the most traditional and prestigious.  Amazing homes line the golf course, which provides a nice backdrop for the avid runner or casual stroller from Forest Brook.  I know a few neighbors have joined the club, as it provides tons of amenities for some of the great promotional rates they have been offering as of late.  Check it out!
