Long known as a “hidden jewel” among locals, Eden has an activity for everyone. Eden is located conveniently 40 minutes from Greensboro, 1 hour from Winston-Salem, and 2 hours from Raleigh. As its name implies, Eden inhabits some of the finest natural beauty you’ll find in North Carolina! It’s well known for their local flavor of eating establishments, great shopping, sports, festivals, and excellent schools. Being located between the Dan, Mayo and Smith Rivers, Eden is ideal for paddling, hiking trails, fishing, boating, canoeing and kayaking, camping and more. There are parks, tracks and a greenway on the river for your health, fitness and enjoyment.

Eden is a great place to work with a pro-business City Council and Chamber of Commerce. They want to work with you in making your ideas and entrepreneurial spirit a fit for the city.
We look forward to the opportunity to show what a friendly place Eden is to work, live and play. There’s nothing like small town living and getting to know everyone as a friend and neighbor.
