Come See the First Peaks of the Blue Ridge!
Polk County is divided into two regions: the Blue Ridge Mountains in the western third of the county and Piedmont of the eastern two-thirds. Since it is in a transition zone between the two regions, Polk County is often referred to as being in the North Carolina Foothills.The elevation of Polk County ranges from just under 800 feet near the confluence of the Green River and Broad River to over 3,200 feet on Tryon Peak and Wildcat Spur.
Welcome to North Carolina’s Horse Country!
Did you know that Polk County has been one of the South’s top equestrian destinations for more than 100 years?
Polk County’s long and storied equestrian history started in 1917 with the Pine Crest Inn in Tryon, a renowned spot where northerners could come and ride their horses during the winter. The Tryon Horse Show began in 1929 (the third oldest of its kind in the country) and the Block House Steeplechase in 1934. In 1956, the US Equestrian Team trained in Tryon for the Olympics.
Tryon still offers world-class equine veterinary, boarding, and training facilities, as well as more than 100 miles of private trail systems. The town has probably been best known for its Foothills Equestrian Nature Center (FENCE), a 390-acre educational and recreational center that provides programs in nature study, outdoor recreation, and equestrian competition.
The $100 million, 1,450-acre Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC) takes a love for horses to the next level. TIEC features 10 riding arenas, over 1,000 permanent stalls, elevated and shaded viewing decks, restaurants, family activities, boutiques, and more. TIEC was chosen as the host of the 2018 World Equine Games.
Explore Polk County’s Historic Districts
Today, downtown Saluda is recognized as a National Historic District. Stroll leisurely among tree-lined streets of lovely Victorian homes and browse the many distinctive shops, art and craft galleries, and delicious restaurants along historic Main Street. Walk into its century-old general stores, and get a whiff of glossy oil-stained, heart pine floors stirring up memories of times gone by.
Get Outside and Enjoy the Community
It would be a shame not to enjoy all the outdoor adventures Polk County has to offer, including parks, walking tours, hiking, road biking, swimming, fishing, camping, ziplining, and whitewater adventures in the Green River Gorge.
Every June, the Blue Ridge Barbeque Festival held at Harmon Field attracts thousands of visitors from around the country. The festival is the largest in Polk County and was named by the Travel Channel among their Top 5 World's Best Barbecue Contests. Beyond barbecue, the two-day festival includes artisans, live music, and a variety of food.
More Adventures are Just a Short Drive Away
Polk County is conveniently located a short drive from many of the Southeast’s top cities and destinations. In addition to being just a short drive from Asheville and Hendersonville, the town is less than an hour from the Greenville-Spartanburg region of South Carolina. Charlotte, Columbia, and Atlanta are just a few hours away.

The scatter diagram plots price (along the horizontal axis) and square footage (along the vertical axis), the pattern of the resulting points reveals any correlation present between the price and the size of the home. When enough correctly selected closed sales are present a linear regression can be calculated providing insight for properly pricing a property. This graph is only useful when similar properties are considered. For assistance identifying similar properties and determining if a correlation does exist, please contact your agent or customer service.
This line graph monitors the average amount of time it takes to market and close on a property. This is useful for monitoring whether a market is accelerating or decelerating. Since it is calculated from closed properties it is useful as a trailing indicator. For assistance predicting the future direction of the market based on active properties, please contact your agent or customer service.
Examining the number of homes sold per month can be an effective way to gauge the sales pace for a particular market. When sales pace is considered alongside days on market the two metrics can prove very effective for revealing future market conditions.
In neighborhoods where properties closely resemble one another, tracking price per square foot over time can provide some basic pricing insight. It’s important to only use this graph in neighborhoods with properties of similar age, condition, and size. For help determining if price per square foot is appropriate, please contact your agent or customer service for more assistance.
This pie chart considers the distribution of sales across all of the price brackets during a specific time period and area. The chart is useful for quickly analyzing which price categories are most commonly sold and when multiple pie charts are considered for spotting consumer preferences across different geographies.
Information throughout these charts are represented as reported by the North Carolina Multiple Listing Service, which does not guarantee or is in any way responsible for its accuracy. Data maintained by the MLS may not reflect all real estate activity in the market.
