Discovering River Rock Country:

Just as America's elite has found solace here for generations, River Rock's founders were captivated by the wild beauty and living landscape of North Carolina's Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.

Renowned for dramatic views of the Great Smoky Mountains, this geographically gifted region is a vast meditation on natural splendor. Within it, the founders searched for the "20 sweetest square miles in the Blue Ridge." Crowned with a temperate climate and majestic forests, these mountains are among the earth's oldest, and a deep sense of place resonates through them. A spirit found only in those rare locations where people have lived for a long time in harmony with the natural beauty surrounding them.

From that experience, River Rock country was born and a new standard set for refined mountain living in sync with environmental splendor.
