| | This lake is so wonderful. Hiking along the Bald Mountain Trail is great fun, obviously you could also explore Leibhart Lake if you're here; it's not far at all. Looking for some flowing water? Try Roses Creek; you don’t have to go far from Henry Harris Lake to distinguish the water at Henry Harris Dam. Yeah, come up here to the Blue Ridge Mountains for a great time. Take a hike on the Daniel Boone Scout Trail, and Rose Creek Family Campground is a nice local | |

campground. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Yancey Ridge Trail; there's whitewater on Steels Creek for all you adrenaline kick people. Be careful coming to the Blue Ridge Mountains, you might not ever want to return home
again. Head up to Appalachian Mountain and strap some skis to your feet, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Upper Creek. This lake is so wonderful. A lake nearby is Goodmans Lake, and
if you want to play some golf, you're in luck because Quaker Meadows Golf club Room is close at hand. A wonderful close by hotel is Days Inn And Suites, and Optimistic RV Resort is a delightful campground nearby. The high level
of precipitation makes Henry Harris Lake a rather wet site; throughout May this area sees the most rain, and December on the other hand is the driest. For the duration of the summer at Henry Harris Lake temperatures are regularly
in the 70's. For the period of the dark hours of summer temperatures descend down into the 50's. All through the wintertime highs are generally in the 40's while the cold winter nights at Henry Harris Lake are in the 10's.

Friendly folks, family oriented, and quiet. There are 4 ramps for launching boats, and the campground is currently expanding under new ownership. There are docks for launching, and plenty of room to beach your boat overnight. We've never had an issue with theft or vandalism while leaving our boat beached while we are camping. I highly recommend this campground for campers with children.... |
