RV Rental Cross Winds Family Campground

Yadkin River meanders and glides for 215 miles, and there are several access points at which one may launch a boat. All boaters should pay attention to the water’s depth; there are stretches of the river where the riverbed is shallow. Anglers can expect to catch several varieties of sunfish, catfish, and white and largemouth bass. Follow the river south to join with High Rock Lake, which is the second-largest lake in North Carolina. It’s also considered the finest fishing hole in the state, and Bassmaster Tournaments are often held on this lake. In addition to a few bass species, fishermen can catch blue, channel, and flathead catfish, crappie, and bluegill.

Close to 5,000 acres, Morrow Mountain State Park has some of the most pristine woodlands in the state. There are close to 20 miles of hiking trails, some of which take adventurers by scenic wonders. Head up to the summit of Morrow Mountain and enjoy the panoramic views of the other mountain ridges, valleys, and Lake Tilley down below. Or hike along the contours of Lake Tilley and enjoy the sight of bald eagles and ospreys soaring high above as they search for easy prey. Keep an eye out, though. Scarlet Kingsnake, among many other species, are commonly found in the damp bottom woods, and though they are not venomous, they will occasionally bite if threatened. Startled white-tailed deer is one of the fastest creatures in these woods, second only to a raptor bird. Often, they bolt so quickly that they’re only recognized by the flash of a whitetail, which is their trademark.

For even more room, Uwharrie National Forest encompasses over 51,000 acres. There are a few hundred miles of hiking trails to explore, and on several, it’s not uncommon to not see another human once you venture far enough from the trailhead parking lot. Uwharrie National Forest is also considered one of the best outdoor rock-climbing spots in the state, thanks to a wide range of cliffs and rock slabs that are suited for people of all difficulty levels. The fantastic views that climbers are rewarded with once they reach the top are good motivation, too.

Though exploring the woodlands of North Carolina is a major draw for visitors to this area, don’t overlook the charms of the small mountain towns. Many are home to interesting businesses, historic sites, and other attractions. Rent a motorhome to discover your favorite one.

In Lexington, is where you will find the Candy Factory, a longtime mainstay business. An old-fashioned candy store, people can indulge in nostalgia as they browse a dazzling array of candies and sweet treats. Try the store’s specialty candy, Red Bird Puffs, or Red Bird Sticks, which are made locally. While in town, also search for the tattooed dinosaur statue, which is the town’s unofficial mascot.

All-a-Flutter is an unusual animal farm on the outskirts of High Point. The facility breeds and raises butterflies in an effort to grow the butterfly populations and conserve certain species. The farm holds regular presentations at which guests can learn more about the butterflies and the conservation efforts. While visiting you can also feed the butterflies. Note that calling ahead is advised during the summer months.

At the end of a long day of sightseeing and adventuring, retreat from the humidity into an RV rental and enjoy the ambient sounds of nature as the sun goes down.
