Sightseeing
The most marvelous place!
A stroll down the trail will take you back and forth across the creek as it rambles over rocks. You will find a formal garden in the English style, collections of conifers and holly, a native wetland trail, a fruit and vegetable garden, and a desert garden hidden behind the stone wall.
If you are a master gardener or know nothing about plants, you will enjoy your time here!
It is free and open to the public daily.

Our area is known for its amazing pottery. In fact, if you drive along Pottery Road you can visit pottery after pottery each with its unique style. If you are lucky you might even catch a potter at work on his or her spinning wheel. This is a fun trip and a great way to spend an afternoon.

Southern Pines - Quaint Downtown
My completely unbiased opinion is that this is the best downtown in America!
Down town is 7 scenic miles from us. At the end of Lakebay Rd. make sure you turn left on Youngs Rd to see the miles of horse farms. You won't be disappointed in the beautiful drive on the way to town!
