State Parks
Carvers Creek State Park
2505 Long Valley Road Spring Lake, NC 28390
910-436-4681
Park Amenities: Amenities at the relatively new Carvers Creek State Park have centered on Long Valley Farm, the historic retreat of a Rockefeller family member, as the park continues to develop recreation opportunities. However, a dramatic flood in September 2016 severely damaged a dam and 100-acre millpond that is a significant park feature. Fishing in the millpond, views from the floating observation deck and some trail opportunities are temporarily interrupted as repairs are being made. The farm continues to offer scenic, contemplative hiking through longleaf pine forests, and rangers lead regular interpretive programs, including occasional tours through the vacation home of the late James Stillman Rockefeller, who bequeathed the property for conservation. A long-range master plan includes varied recreation proposals for the park that encompasses more than 4,000 acres.
*Entrance is not in the County but a portion of the property is.*
Hours Operation:
November to February: 8:00am to 6:00pm
March to May: 8:00am to 8:00pm

Raven Rock State Park
3009 Raven Rock Road Lillington, NC 27546
910-893-4888
Park Amenities: The Cape Fear River is the frequent hiking destination for visitors entering Raven Rock State Park, whether it’s Lanier Falls, the Fish Traps rapids, or the massive Raven Rock, an ageless landmark for river travelers. Along the way, hikers will experience steep terrain, mountain laurel and rhododendron thickets, and tumbling creeks. The park offers primitive backcountry camping areas for families and paddlers; all supplies must be carried in, but the solitude is worth the effort. A separate equestrian area on the river’s north bank offers extensive trails and a large parking area. Frequent interpretive programs complement museum-quality exhibits in the visitor center exploring the Cape Fear region’s cultural and natural history.
Hours Operation:
November to February: 7:00am to 7:00pm
March to May: 7:00am to 9:00pm
June to August: 7:00am to 10:00pm
