Welcome to the beautiful foothills of western North Carolina! The Polk County area is known as the First Peak of the Blue Ridge, and offers a temperate four-season climate, diverse population and access to major cities while being “off the beaten path”. Here you’ll find beautiful scenery as well as quaint small towns.
We’re also close to such famous destinations as Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, the Biltmore House and Asheville. This area truly has so much to offer!
