     Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Moormans River; Boars Head Inn is a great location to get some rest. This lake is so wonderful. There's some flowing water close by, Little Ivy Creek is a stream you can stop by while here, and going for a hike on the Falls Trail is always a wonderful adventure. The sight of Turners Mountain from Clover Lake is charming; dry warm beds await you at THE CAVALIER INN AT THE UNIVERSITY.  
   You assume that's enough? Just getting warmed up.
This lake is so wonderful. There's so much to do here at Clover Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Misty Mountain Camp Resort is a splendid location for that, and playing golf is lots of fun at Meadow Creek Golf Course at Pen Park. You don’t have to go far from Clover Lake to spot the water at Clover Dam, and Charlottesville Reservoir is a nearby lake that you could visit. This is a popular place for

Charlottesville Reservoir
For years I have been fishing the reservoir, the boat ramp is terrible at the twin bridges, and not enough parking at the dam. Several other fisherman including myself would be more than happy to fix the ramp at the bridges free of charge to the city or county if permission is granted. There is much erosion near the edge of the ramp. Backing your boat in the water is dangerous, trying not to go near the eroded bank. Please call me with a response . THANKS.

Beldor Ridge Trail
16 miles away
The trail may be fine, but I would avoid venturing too deep into Beldor hollow road. These people have lived here for a very long time, and ''dont take kind to strangers''. Just to give you guys an idea, my father worked as a volunteer fire fighter for the Elkton fire department. They got a call for a fire and took a wrong turn. When they went to turn around they had a car, that was not a car that ran, placed in the middle of the road. Quite a feat. After an altercation with the shotgun wielding locals, they were finally pursuaded that someone could be dying while they werent allowing them out. Finally they moved the car back.

Same for several of the hollows around elkton(pronounced ''hollar'' by the local folk). Beldor, Lynnwood, to a lesser extent thouroughfare area. Also Bryant Hollow can be a little rough if they dont reconize you as well....
