Significant Recovery Milestones

The Village is incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support following the devastating storm damage from Hurricane Helene. While the rebuilding effort will take extensive work and time, the Village is encouraged by the progress which has been made.
1. The Rocky Broad River, which flowed through Chimney Rock Village, has been restored to its original channel to aid rebuilding.
2. The entrance to Chimney Rock State Park has been cleared of debris. Plans are being developed to rebuild the public bridge connecting the Village to the Park.
3. Volunteer Groups along with the US Army 101st Airborne are removing the thick mud deposited in the stores and clearing the sidewalks.
4. Residents and merchants have been allowed to return to the Village. Merchants with buildings remaining have begun to remove salvageable items, discard ruined merchandise and assess structural damage. Sadly, many business owners and residents lost their buildings and homes and will need to completely rebuild.
5. NC Department of Transportation has begun rebuilding Hwy 74A/64/9 from Chimney Rock Village west toward Bat Cave, NC, to reconnect communities. This will take many months to complete.
