The name Toxaway in its many spellings and variances has several Cherokee applications, among them a former settlement in South Carolina and a Cherokee chief. The original meaning of the name is uncertain. One often-repeated definition is redbird. Whatever its origin, today the name refers to a river, a mountain, a creek, a lake, and the waterfall. The development of the Toxaway Falls area began after the turn of the twentieth century with the construction of the lake and a five-hundred-room luxury resort called Toxaway Inn.
