It’s a spot near the river. Kind of a pain to get in because of the traffic pattern

Lots of shade. This is just a gravel parking lot. It is right on the French Broad river. Great place to launch canoes and kayaks. It also has access to many trails.

I didn't have my boat, but it seemed like the perfect launch for the French Broad river

Questions & Answers

My 7yo wants to try fishing, is this a good place to try? Do we need a license?

Youth under 16 do not require a license. You might consider fishing in Lake Powhatan right down the road. Pond fishing is easier than river fishing (imo). There is a fee to get into the lake area.

Sam, the park is only open until dusk. Bear Creek RV Park is close by, though.

No this is just a public river access area. Zen tubing offers tube rentals right down the road. French Broad Outfitters has kayak rentals and shuttle service.
