LANDRUM, SC | TRYON, NC

Nestled high above the bustling world where birds of prey soar at eye-level, an enchanting getaway awaits in a special place where the trees whisper secrets and the hills roll like plush green carpets beneath a bright-blue sky (until the sparkling stars emerge at twilight). Welcome to your escape from the grind, where your guest quarters might be nestled high among the mountain trees or peeking out from an alpine hillside.

You-nique

You won’t find another experience quite like this … anywhere (that’s a promise).

You-escape …

At Laurel Ridge, we focus on making your stay memorable, no matter how long your stay is. With fine appointments and chef prepared meals upon request (your guest-master is a certified pastry chef who trained at the Culinary Institute of the Carolinas), you can take in the majestic surroundings and truly relax. How you use your time is entirely up to you!

While watching the clouds roll over the Blue Ridge Mountains at sunrise is a special treat, we won’t judge you if you decide to sleep in. And while the sunset in the west fills the western sky like a light show behind the soaring mountains, we won’t judge you if you decide to retire early.

Whether you are hoping to fill your time with adventure, catch up on your sleep or read that book that you have been intending to read for months, you can be sure that you will leave Laurel Ridge recharged and looking at the calendar to plan your next stay.

Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity.
— John Muir c. 1901
