3" Gold River Rock

3" gold river rock is a naturally rounded aggregate sourced from riverbeds, featuring a striking gold hue. The stones are screened to a consistent 3-inch size, making them larger than typical gravel or pea stone. Their smooth, rounded surfaces are a result of years of water erosion, which also enhances their visual appeal and makes them comfortable to handle.

The generous 3" size and natural gold color make this river rock ideal for decorative landscaping, dry creek beds, and accent borders in both residential and commercial settings. Its size helps prevent displacement by wind or rain, and the rounded shape is gentle on bare feet, making it suitable for garden paths and play areas. While not suitable for compacted base layers due to its size and shape, it excels in drainage applications and as a low-maintenance ground cover. The gold color adds warmth and elegance to any outdoor space, making it a popular choice for high-visibility projects.
