About The Land: More than a century of history marks an extraordinary place where people from all walks of life came for rest, relaxation and the healing powers of the mineral springs of Rocky River Springs. Even before the Revolutionary War, Indians had discovered a group of springs which were said to contain various minerals such as iron, sulphur, and magnesia that were believed to have "healing powers". In those early years, a pioneer settler and his wife built their home on a hill overlooking the famous springs and there began the legacy of Rocky River Springs as one of the best known health resorts in the South. From the early 1800's to the 1930's, the legacy evolved through the many generations of landowners when hotels were built, summer homes and cottages were constructed, restaurants were established, and towns were born. People came from all over to enjoy the grand celebrations, picnics and parties, but most came seeking rest, health, relaxation and pleasure. Rocky River Springs was, in its day, a first class summer health resort.After more than a century of growth and expansion, the magical springs have lost their zest, and the grandeur of those times is only a memory. Folks today still remember their parents' and grandparents' stories of summer vacations at the resort, of the picnics, Fourth of July celebrations, swimming and most of all the healing powers of the natural springs.
