    Beautiful Medmont Lake has much to offer visitors. You just must go for Medmont Lake. If you're stopping by Medmont Lake from Roanoke, you won't be the only one; a golf course nearby is Salem Golf Course. You imagine that's enough? Just getting warmed up. All our national parks are pleasant sites to stop at, and Booker T Washington National Monument is no exception. So much entertaining stuff in the Blue Ridge Mountains, just incredible. Whitewater paddling  
   is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Roanoke River - South Fork, and Sugarloaf Mountain is a peak you can observe from Medmont Lake.
If you're here at Medmont Lake, you could visit Barnhardt Creek, and after a long day outdoors Comfort Suites Inn At Ridgewood Farm is a good location to spend a night or two. This lake is so wonderful. Good hiking is available along the Trout Creek Appalachian Trail, and there are some splendid whitewater
 
               spots on Craig Creek. Medmont Lake gets a common amount of yearly rainfall; the wettest month of the year is generally May, that's the one that rains the most while February is ordinarily the driest month.
Grindstone - George Washington National Forest is a great local campground; don't leave Medmont Lake without first going for a hike along the Dragon Tooth Trail. There are other sites here than Medmont Lake, for example Crestmoor Lake, and if you need a site to stay Days Inn Salem is a wonderful choice. This lake is so wonderful. You can take a little tour to Windsor Lake Dam while you're here at Medmont Lake, and why not camp at Beartree - George Washington National Forest while you're here at Medmont Lake.
And that's not all the things you can do here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Go for a hike on the North Mountain Trail, and lakes are such calm places, why not visit Kimble Lake.

Craig Creek
13 miles away
I've never kayaked this stretch of Craig's Creek, but it is not the ONLY stretch by far!  We spent 10 days in a lovely VRBO.com riverfront vacation rental downstream from New Castle, and kayaked both up and down the river multiple times, even though the area was in the middle of a bad drought.  We will be renting in Roaring Run this year, which is according to the owner kayakable for the 5 miles to where it meets the James River.  There is a very nice pull out/picnic spot where the two meet, and plenty of room to park.  Take time out to splash around as well.  I've never seen a river this clean before!...
