  Needed to get out of the car and take a walk during a long road trip South. This nature preserve was right off the highway (pretty much) and free! The focus of the space is horses and riding so the trails are pretty ridden with horse back riders and what goes with it....but still was a great place to walk, friendly and pretty and we really appreciated that we could share the space with the riders,

  This place is a jewel of the Mecklenburg County Park system. This beautiful park has all the types of natural areas, nature center, trails, and water access that you look for in a park. The real bonus is all the other amenities that the parks partners offer. Horseback riding, horse events, historic plantation home tours, and the world class Carolina Raptor Center. A family can easily spend an entire day here and a have a great time.

  We saw a sign for Buzzard Rock Overlook and being curious we decided to pull over and check it out. We learned there were other trails around the lake but this is the only one we took. It's a short walk and then the Buzzard Rock comes into view. You'll see a deck built around a rock shaded by the trees. It would have been a great place for a picnic lunch, just sitting there and taking in the view of Mountain Island Lake.
