Rutherford County,North Carolina
THERA-SSAGE is located in Rutherfordton, North Carolina, a historical small
town in the western foothills.  Centrally located between Asheville and
Charlotte, we are just a few miles down the mountain from beautiful Lake
Lure and Chimney Rock.  Many great restaurants, antique stores, and quaint
shops will make your stay a pleasant one.  Our clean and spacious office is
located between McMahan's Funeral Home and the liquor store.  If we can't
help you, maybe you ought to visit one of them!

Enjoy the photo tour below; it highlights just a few of the great places to visit
here in the town of Rutherfordton and our surrounding area.  Come and visit
for a day, and the next thing you know, you'll be packing up and moving here!  
To learn more about our beautiful area, check out the
Rutherford County
Chamber of Commerce website.  
Rutherford County's
historic courthouse.
The beautiful spectacle that is
Chimney Rock, bathed in the late
afternoon sunlight.
The Devil's Head is also a
wondrous part of Chimney Rock
State Park. Privately owned for
many years, Chimney Rock was just
made a state park a couple of
years ago.
Another view of the Rock,
overlooking Lake Lure and the
beautiful Hickory Nut Gorge. You
can see at least 75 miles from the
top.
We've got more pickers
and grinners than you can
shake a stick at!
Barley's Taproom in Spindale has killer
pizza, mucho beer on tap, and a lot of the
above-mentioned musicians hanging
around.
Your kiddos will love the Kid
Senses Museum on Main Street in
Rutherfordton. They have so much
to tell about, we don't know where
to start. All kinds of great
programs for kids, plus a great
educational and toy store on the
inside.
M2 is another favorite.
Specializing in organic
locally-sourced foods, they have a
full bar and usually have live music
on Friday and Saturday. Tapas
Tuesday, theme nights on
Wednesday, something is sure to
please you!
There's plenty to do in Rutherford County so you don't have to be bored for a minute. Trail riding,
hiking, rock climbing, shopping at the great Tanner Outlet Store, visiting the Foundation at
Isothermal Community College to see a great performance, wandering in and out of the shops
downtown. Stay in a Bed and Breakfast or a conveniently located hotel. Check out our many
fabulous local restaurants, some of which are family-owned places that have been around for more
than 50 years. Play a game of golf on one of our fab courses.  Rent a boat or bring your own and
spend the day or a week on lovely Lake Lure. See the famous cove where Dirty Dancing was filmed,
and the awesome view where part of Last of the Mohicans was filmed. We have something for
everyone, regardless of your budget and the amount of time you have to spend.
St. John's is the oldest church in
our town. I like to sing in there, the
acoustics are killer!
