tennis & swim
​
Our community plays home to a small lake, perfect for swimming, fishing, and boating. Residents are welcome to leave their boats on the provided boat racks or sign out the community kayaks, canoes, or rowboats at their leisure. During the summer season, a lifeguard is always on duty during specified hours.
​
We also boast eight great clay tennis courts, where you'll often find people practicing that perfect serve or just meeting for a casual match in the morning. And don't forget the annual 4th of July mixed doubles tennis tournament, where players of all levels come out to play! (Note: We'd be remiss if we didn't mention the awesome potluck BBQ afterwards, open to anyone who wants to join).
Row boats, kayaks, and canoes are all available to check out and use!
You can store your kayak or canoe lakeside on one of the provided racks.
There are eight beautiful clay courts available for use.
Lifeguards are on duty during the summer.
Players of all levels are welcome on the court!
Provided umbrellas and chairs are available for use!

"The annual 4th of July tennis tournament is the highlight of our summer! Players of all ages and skills come out for a great time, and we all enjoy the BBQ afterwards!"
~Howie B.
"We've been coming up to Balsam Crest for over 20 years, and my kids learned to swim and catch frogs in Tripp Lake. There's a lifeguard on duty, and the free boat rentals always make for a fun day!
~Frances H.
"I can't imagine a better day than tennis is the morning and relaxing by the lake in the afternoon. Everyone in the community is so welcoming, and there's always new people to meet!"
