Located in the scenic Hickory Nut Gorge, Chimney Rock Village is a strong community surrounded by exceptional outdoor recreation opportunities. Prior to the devastating effects of Hurricane Helene, recent streetscape improvements significantly enhanced access to the area’s quaint downtown shops and attractions. The Village Square Plaza has served as a popular public gathering space and gateway to the Broad River. The recovery efforts ahead will further strengthen the Village's appeal, restoring it as a premier tourism destination and ensuring that its natural beauty and outdoor opportunities continue to thrive for generations to come.
