Polk County History and Information

Polk County is located between Henderson and Rutherford Counties in the North Carolina Foothills. I-26 is the interstate that runs through Polk County before crossing over into South Carolina. Polk County has a population of about 20,600 and has three main towns: Saluda, Columbus and Tryon. 

Polk County has been known as one of the South’s best equestrian destinations for over 100 years. It started in 1917 when the Pine Crest Inn in Tryon opened. It was a popular spot for northerners to come and ride their horses during the winter months. Then, in 1929, the Tryon Horse Show started making it the third oldest of its kind in the United States. In 1956, the US Equestrian Team trained in Tryon for the Olympics.

St. Luke’s Hospital is located in Columbus while two other hospitals are just a few minutes away in Hendersonville, NC which are Park Ridge and Pardee. 

Lake Adger is Polk County’s largest body of water and offers ample recreational opportunities like fishing, camping, and enjoying nature. If you buy a home here, you are just a short drive to Dupont State Recreational Forest, Pisgah National Forest, and Green River Game Lands. 

Polk County Communities

Polk County has three incorporated cities that include Saluda, Tryon, and Columbus. Columbus is the county seat and has lots of activities and historical places to see. 

Columbus

Columbus is just a few miles north of the NC/SC border. With a population of just over 1,000, it definitely gives that small town feel while also being within driving distance of Asheville. In the historic downtown, see one of the oldest courthouses in North Carolina and grab lunch or dinner at a number of highly rated restaurants. You and your family can enjoy two parks in the middle of town. Stearns Park has a lovely gazebo that hosts many events throughout the year. It’s also a great place to picnic while enjoying the mountain views. Behind the historic courthouse is Veterans Park which has a lovely fountain and memorial. Columbus homes for sale are listed on our website but please give us a call if you are interested in this area. 

Saluda

Saluda is a bit smaller than Columbus with a population of just over 700 residents. Saluda is a bonafide mountain oasis. 18,000 acres of the Green River Gamelands and the Greenville Watershed have served as natural buffers to preserve the inherent character of this mountain own. Residents recommend the Saluda Arts Festival which is held every May. You’ll also find the Green River Gorge which offers a large variety of outdoor adventures including kayak trips, paddleboard rentals, tubing, fishing, and camping. We’ve closed many Saluda homes for sale and can help you if you like this area so be sure to contact us. 

Tryon

For 125 years, Tryon has been known as “The Friendliest Town in the South”. With a population of just over 1,400, it’s the largest town in Polk County. Tryon’s moderate winters, cool summer breezes, rolling landscapes, and mountain views attract visitors as well as those looking for the perfect place to call home. If you are a wine lover, you’ll be happy to learn that Tryon has several operating vineyards. The town is a very people-centered community that values the arts and nature. We love Tryon so much that our home office is located in this area. We are very familiar with the area and can help you find a Tryon home for sale.
