About Tuxedo Falls
Our Story
At Tuxedo Falls, we are passionate about the outdoors and we want to share that passion with you. Our journey began when we discovered a beautiful oasis - long forgotten, overgrown and inaccessible. (The previous owner even called it Shangri La.)
Having deep family roots in nearby Lake Summit and Flat Rock, we recognized the need for hospitality; in particular, high-end and outdoor oriented. In the spirit of the numerous summer camps which the Tuxedo area is known for, we plan to bring adults and families these same outdoor experiences in exceptional style.
The Mission
Long time hidden and inaccessible, Tuxedo Falls has been newly discovered and soon to be shared. We are a team of passionate outdoor enthusiasts who are excited to breathe life back into this wonderland that once served as a summer kids camp. We believe that spending time outside is essential for our health and wellbeing. Our mission is simple: to connect people with the natural world while providing excellence in hospitality.
At Tuxedo Falls you will find stunning waterfalls on two trout streams, unique rock outcroppings, an open ridgetop main lodge site, 360-degree mountain views, acres of rhododendron and mountain laurel, old growth forest, all accessed by miles of creekside hiking trails. Tuxedo Falls is a secret oasis that begs to be discovered and experienced.
A few images of Tuxedo Falls
Rice Mountain, future home to more hiking trails which will lead you to adventures in fitness, ecology and sunset cocktails.
Our namesake waterfall, Tuxedo Falls, was previously called Burgie Falls then Charlie Falls. We will share the history of the waterfalls and more at the campfire.
One of our fav waterfalls on Joe's Creek. We need a name! Any ideas? Come visit and help us name it!
The old camp bridge! Sadly we had to recently replace it. Not because the 50 year old+ native black locust wood gave way, but because the majestic hemlocks anchoring the bridge fell victim to the invasive hemlock woolly adelgid:(
One of our many rhododendron tunnel trails, revived from the old camp days. *pro tip...very late June to mid July is when these native Rosebay Rhodos bloom. Bring your best camera, or not!
Cold plunge the natural way! Yours truly enjoying a refreshing splash in Tommy Falls after a hot, summer day of trail work.
