About Gulf

Tucked along the Deep River in Chatham County, Gulf is a tiny, quiet community with deep historic roots. Home to just around a hundred residents, the area has a relaxed, rural rhythm anchored by 19th-century homes, the old J. R. Moore Store, and Gulf Presbyterian Church along Moore's Store Road. What began as a colonial milling and railroad settlement is today a peaceful country retreat for those who appreciate open land and riverside scenery.
