Rare opportunity to own an outstanding, well established, turn-key resort in the heart of historic Flat Rock, NC on 25 gorgeous acres bordering Highland Lake. Great potential to be converted into a wellness retreat, conference center, religious assembly, educational campus, corporate event center, or other special purpose resort. Set along the serene shores of Highland Lake, the property features a highly acclaimed, award-winning restaurant known for its strong local and tourist patronage. Anchored by a chef-designed kitchen, the restaurant is further enhanced by multiple private dining areas and a dedicated special events hall—positioning the venue as a prime location for weddings, retreats, and corporate functions. The resort includes 65 keyed guest accommodations distributed across a mix of charming cottages, rustic cabins, and traditional inn-style lodge, offering a versatile guest experience. On-site conference and meeting facilities can accommodate groups ranging from 60 to 200 attendees, supporting year-round group bookings and events. Amenities include a seasonal pool with a covered pavilion, tennis courts, and extensive outdoor space, all of which contribute to the resort’s draw as a multi-faceted destination. With room for future expansion and the ability to introduce new programming, this is a generational acquisition opportunity in one of Western North Carolina’s most picturesque and historically rich locales. Option: The property can include a three bedroom owner’s residence on 1 acre, shown in the brochure as the Garden House, for an additional $700,000.
