     A fine site to camp here at Duck Lake is Badin Lake Campground, needless to say you could also have a look at Bruton Mill Pond if you're here; it's not far at all. Uwharrie River has a wonderful whitewater paddling spot nearby, and Duck Lake is not the only location nearby, Alexander Pond is a nearby lake. Duck Lake sees pretty high levels of precipitation; July is when you get the most rain here; the driest of the months is April. This lake is so wonderful.  
   Good hiking is available along the Uwharrie National Recreation Trail, and wonderful water scenery is available at Alexander Pond Dam right next door to Duck Lake.
Dry warm beds await you at Americas Best Value Inn and Suites, and you can go for a hike on the Uwharrie Jeep Trail. This lake is so wonderful. Summertime highs at Duck Lake commonly tend to be in the 80's while night lows are frequently in the 60's. The cold days of the winter come with highs
 
               in the 50's with winter lows in the 20's overnight here at Duck Lake.
Camping at Badin Lake Group Campground is always a perfect experience; unsurprisingly Toms Branch is a charming stream that is worth stopping at. So much enjoyable stuff to do here at Duck Lake, too pleasant to be true. After a long day outdoors Days Inn Biscoe is a delightful site to spend a night or two, and there's splendid hiking along the Birkhead Trail.

Uwharrie River
10 miles away
...he water was way high flowing over the bridge at Low River bridge on SR 1301, our putin point. With the water that high the current was swift with a lot of low lying trees dwarfing the banks. We no sooner put in and the second canoe got caught in the current and capsized. We in the third were unable to upright it before it became lodged between two trees with the current making it impossible to free it. We were able to recover the two boys and rejoin with the first canoe which had continued on downstream. Long and short of our adventure we all made it to Morrow Mtn State Park in about 5 hours time in two canoes (11:30 AM - 4:30 PM). We stayed to the center of the river as much as possible and negotiated the rapids without mishap. It was very unpredictable with alot of unsuspecting trees in the middle of the river (sumerged islands). We then returned to Low River Bridge to recover the lost canoe. The water was now some four to five feet lower clearing the bridge. With much of the pressure of the current on the canoe now gone we were able to free it and get it out of the river. With al...

Falls Reservoir
12 miles away
Outstanding scenery! Like a storybook setting , although last time I went , it was close to 100 degrees....It is a very great lake for fishing. There is absolutly no recreation(jet-skiers, water skiers). You must be careful, there are many unmarked water hazards (most are near the upper dam). I wouldn't take an expensive boat on the lake....The perfect place to find yourself lost among nature and forget all of your ''big'' city problems without a 3 day hike into the woods....Falls Reservoir is a hidden jewel. Located between two dams. No development whatsoever....
