🥳

We have great news to kick off your Friday! Chimney Rock State Park and the Chimney Rock attraction will officially reopen to visitors on Friday, June 27, nine months after Hurricane Helene severely impacted the region. Thanks to strong collaboration between the N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources, the N.C. Department of Transportation, and local leaders, a temporary entrance bridge and road repairs are now complete, allowing the park to safely welcome visitors once again.

Chimney Rock is one of western North Carolina’s most iconic natural landmarks, offering dramatic views of Hickory Nut Gorge and Lake Lure. Advance reservations will be required to access the Chimney Rock attraction, and capacity will be limited while recovery efforts continue. Ticketing will open approximately one week before the reopening at chimneyrockpark.com.

We were very fortunate to have survived Helene with no flooding or damages. Now that power has been restored, we have opened the house back up for bookings. We are also listed on Airbnb.org to help nonprofit organizations offer a temporary place to stay to people in need.
