This lake is so wonderful. If you come at the right time of year, Rocky River offers some tremendous whitewater; there are other locations here than Springer Lake, for example Gaddys Goose Ponds. This lake is so wonderful. Camping
at Cotton Patch Gold Mine is always a good experience; let's not forget North Prong Buffalo Creek which is a stream that you may bump into while you're here. There are some glorious whitewater spots on Uwharrie River, and if you need a location to stay Americas Best Value Inn and Suites is a delightful choice.

Falls Reservoir
 | 15 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.... |

Uwharrie River
 | 19 miles away ...Took this trip 20 June 09 with another adult and four boys, (six in all) with three canoes. The 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 t... |
