River Rock (3″)
Applications & Uses
3" River Rock
3" river rock is a naturally rounded stone sourced from riverbeds, known for its smooth texture and substantial size. Unlike crushed stone, river rock is shaped by water over time, resulting in a polished appearance and gentle edges.
The 3" size range makes this material ideal for decorative landscaping, erosion control, and large-scale drainage projects. Its larger profile helps prevent displacement, making it suitable for lining garden beds, dry creek beds, and around water features. The smooth, rounded shape is gentle underfoot and visually appealing, but it does not compact, so it's not recommended for load-bearing surfaces like driveways. River rock's natural look and durability make it a popular choice for both residential and commercial landscape designs.
