a good place to get some rest; getting to Lenoir Branch from Mint Lake is painless. If you're interested in hydro structures, you can have a look at Mint Lake Dam; a brilliant close by hotel is Carolina Motel.
Whitewater paddling
is tremendous on Cartoogechaye River; a day on the slopes of Sky Valley is just what you need. This lake is so wonderful. Camping at Cartoogechaye Creek is always a nice experience, and since you're here you can take a hike along
the Hurricane Creek Trail. And if that's not enough there's a lot more cool things to do in the Blue Ridge Mountains. If you came to camp Pines RV Park and Cabins is a splendid place to do that, and at Mint Lake you can make out Bruce Knob.
