     Cranberry Lake is always a pleasure to visit. High Point Cliff is an out of the ordinary site to stop by while at Cranberry Lake; Beech Mountain Inns is a glorious site to get some rest. Yeah, come here to Cranberry Lake for a brilliant time. A pleasant site right next door to Cranberry Lake is Briggs Hollow, and Jim and Jennie's Music Barn and Campground is a glorious local campground. There's always Cranberry Dam to have a look at near Cranberry Lake; do have a  
   look at Wildcat Lake, it's a pretty lake.
Whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then we recommend Elk River, and what would winter be without some skiing at Sugar Mountain. The warmest time of the year brings highs in the 80's to Cranberry Lake, and the night is fairly colder of course, commonly in the 60's. The cold days of the wintertime come with highs in the 40's with winter lows in the 20's overnight here at Cranberry Lake. This lake
 
               is so wonderful. While you're here at Cranberry Lake you can take a hike along the Laurel Fork Trail; hey, Blevins Creek is a wonderful local stream.
On a wonderful day at Cranberry Lake you can take a hike along the Little Pond Mountain Trail, and dry warm beds await you at Best Western Mountain Lodge At Banner Elk. This place, Cranberry Lake, it just has so much outdoors cool stuff. You'll meet a lot of folks from Boone here. If the weather is lovely, you obtain a tremendous view of Belview Mountain from Cranberry Lake, and why not camp at Buckhill Campground if you're here at Cranberry Lake.
All the water falling down from the sky makes Cranberry Lake a wet location; all through July this area sees the most rain, and October is the month with the least moisture. This lake is so wonderful. Mill Pond is a nearby lake that you could pop by; you'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Hawksnest while you're here.

Laurel Fork Trail
6 PHOTOS
Not normally hikers, and middle aged, this trail was a killer. We had a great time, and the scenery was beautiful, but we were worn out. We ran into a copperhead, twice, once on the way up, and again on the way down. Apparently he was guarding his territory. The falls weren't as full as we hoped, but there has been a lack of rain in this area. The trail in some area's were a bit rough, steep, and dangerous, but at least we can say we made it....

Springmaid Mountain
15 miles away
Springmaid Mountain is a beautiful place to visit. Even if you don't like camping they also have cabins. If you go camping, try going in the off season. We went in Sept. 05 and we basically had the campground to ourselves! Even if others were in the campground, the sites are spaced apart. Its a great getaway....
