The tour features MOUNTAIN LODGE c1827, Beaumont c1839 and Saluda Cottages c1836. All three homes and properties are beautiful examples of the estates built by Charlestonians in the early 19th century while establishing Flat Rock as their summer enclave. Flat Rock would become known as “The Little Charleston of the Mountains.” Through the efforts of Historic Flat Rock Inc, in 1973 the United States Department of the Interior placed on the National Register of Historic Places Flat Rock, 4000 acres encompassing 6.25 square miles. This designation is the largest in the State of North Carolina and further recognized by the North Carolina and the State Historic Preservation Office.
The roads you are driving down were originally put in place in the early 1820’s and many historical gardens and plantings are along them. Also remember to stop by the Old Post Office Building c 1847, located at the Flat Rock Village Center which is home to the Historic Flat Rock, Inc. Cultural Center and Museum.
Homes open at 10:00AM and will close at 4:00PM. We strongly suggest you begin the tour prior to 1:00PM in order to visit all three stops. The houses are not handicapped accessible, and we ask visitors to wear flat-heeled, comfortable shoes, both to protect the original floors inside the homes and for visitor comfort while walking on uneven terrain. No children under 10 are allowed on the tour.
