SweetGrass, in Blowing Rock, N.C., is a mountain meadow community framed by stunning mountain views, including the Blue Ridge Parkway, Grandfather Mountain and Julian Price Memorial Park. The natural characteristics of SweetGrass join together offering a remarkably inspired lifestyle for the families who choose to make SweetGrass their home.
Endless fun is provided by a 22-acre lake, parks, trails and Boone Fork Creek, designated outstanding resource waters and wild trout
waters by North Carolina. Crystal clear SweetGrass Lake beckons families to float the day away in the cool water or perhaps paddle a canoe or kayak.

Early in the morning, you’ll see residents launching their canoes from the Boat House for a leisurely paddle to Little Canoe Park.
