About this map

Brevard and its neighboring residential clusters like Franklin Park and McCrary Acres serve as the focal point for this 2013 survey, which illustrates the intersection of academic life at Brevard College and the region’s deep connection to outdoor recreation. The landscape is defined by the French Broad River and its numerous tributaries, which feed into significant water bodies such as Cascade Lake and Piedmont Lake.

A network of seasonal retreats and educational camps, including Rockbrook Camp, Camp Illahee, and the Greenville Elks Childrens Camp, are scattered among the peaks of the Blue Ridge. These sites, along with landmarks like Dunns Rock and Castle Rock, highlight the area's established role as a mountain destination. Settlement patterns extend south through Sequoyah Woods and Sherwood Forest, where residential development is integrated into the high-elevation terrain near Connestee Falls and Pine Shore Lakes.
