You can't swim in the deep end due to divers which is a bummer. Only during the adult swim time. I understand it's for safety but the other section crowds fast due to this. I would come back on a weekday at opening to avoid super crowds. I came on a Monday for 3 hours and that was enough for me (due to crowding) Snack bar is cash only.

Didn't see a page for this place yet, so decided to make one so I can recommend it to everybody!…read moreIf you're looking to get outside, get some activity, fresh air, something good for the kids, or even just a place to catch some zen either alone or with a partner, this is the perfect place! It's about 2 miles total in hiking, so not very grueling, but the terrain does vary quite a bit throughout. The trails are chock full of inclines, declines, and roots to navigate. There is also an "easier" trail (which is considered moderate by trail standards around these parts) and a red marked trail. We stayed on the regular trail with the kids and had a fine time enjoying our stroll through nature. Some areas of the trail are rather narrow, and the entire place is well shaded during the summertime, making this a great place to come even on the hottest and most humid of days. No sunscreen needed! While I do have to admit that the "cascade" was a little underwhelming compared to what I had pictured in my mind's eye, the trickling sound of water always makes for the most tranquil of moments. This place is another deserving mention on the list of absolutely beautiful nature places to check out in the Triad!

For just $6 you can bring your own kayak, SUP, or canoe to launch on their sandy little beach. Or you can rent one of their kayaks. Even on weekends with decent weather I've seen them mostly available on the spot. There are also options for an annual pass, fishing, and even a paved ramp to put in motorized boats. You could also very easily just sit and relax here by the waterside or stroll around. But if you want to get on the lake, this is the prime spot. Bird watching along the shoreline is great from the vantage point of the kayak. With a vast array of birdsong to ID, you can even see kingfishers ducking, diving, and doing anything to ruin your chances of proving they exist with a photograph. But at least you can enjoy a quiet and relaxing float to ease the soul.

This 3.2 mile hike is wonderful. The trail is well shaded for summer travel.

I feel safe taking my son on the trail, there is always someone on the trail that is local. Which is fantastic. Its super safe!

We went to check out the playgrounds on this particular day, and there is two separate playgrounds which have their own parking lot. You will need to drive to each one, they are not close enough to walk. The first one was near a shelter and bathroom and had more to do. Though the second one I preferred because it was in the shade but there was no bathroom. This was the only frustrating part because I feel like you have to cut your time short or pack everyone up just to go pee. I hope they consider a solution for this because it's enough of a drawback for me not to consider going again. I have also played volleyball here and I can attest that they are great courts!

It's short, partially uncleared, and dumps you into the woods without warning at the apparent end of it. The playground is also pretty pathetic, and the swings are too close to the ground even for my short kids. Oh well...not sure why they bother keeping this one open to be honest.

Haw River State Park is like no other NC state park. We had a great time!…read more All 5 trails are clearly marked and our kept clear (so you can see where the trail is). The Great Blue Heron trail is 3.2 miles and has mile markers along the way to tell you how far you've gone, and takes you deep into the wilderness. You have to take the .4 mile connector trail to get to it. They have a wetlands boardwalk that takes you to the Haw River viewpoint. The viewpoint is small and the river is nearly standstill, but still is beautiful. The lake look trail takes you around the lake (obviously) and you can catch some turtles swimming in the lake! We saw one on a log. The piedmont loop trail is the perfect length to walk with your dog or small children. Mosquitoes are bad, but aren't aggressive (they just like to stay in clusters along the trail). In May there were zero biting flies like horseflies or yellow flies. It may be a bit of a challenge to park something big in here like an RV, but it's doable. The visitor center is at the summit access point, and is connected to the conference center. Restrooms are clean, and staff are kind!!

I stopped at this park for the Jr Ranger Program. It looked well up-kept on the grounds. I liked…read morethat they offer this program for the children. I do wish there was a way to double press some of the exhibits inside, to be able to disable them. The speakers are quiet loud, and our little of course wanted to press the buttons, even after we moved on from that section. Then she complained about the loud noise of the speakers. It was fun learning about the parks history, doing the activities inside, and walking the grounds to see the grave sites, statues, and go hunting for wildlife scavenger hunt. The ranger that was on-site was very friendly and patient with our little when she interviewed him for one of the activities in the booklet and when presenting her with her badge. As we were leaving the ranger let us know about some other opportunities for guest to earn different badges at the park. We will have to try next time we are in town.
