The FMST is honored by the US Army Corps of Engineers each year with a thank you Cookout at the RollingView Rec Area Site 14. Adequate parking adjacent to the Shelter & a short walk to the Rest Room building make it a good place to feed a crowd. We had a fire in the fireplace and enjoyed good weather. Adequate tables, water close by & plenty of Trash Receptacles were also nice to have.

Boat ramp. Swimming. Hiking. Picnic areas. A good place to cool off on a hot summer day. Public rest rooms. Plenty of parking.

There is a significant section of the Mountains to Sea Trail that winds for perhaps 30 miles along the hills bounding Falls Lake.Frequent access points make it easy to take the trail in 2-4 mile pieces. In spite of being in North Raleigh, the lake shore has the feel of considerable isolation, and the very hilly terrain is reminiscent of that 150 miles further west.The trail is not heavily trafficked in the winter, so it is quite pleasant to enjoy. It's not unusual to see deer and other wildlife.

I stumbled upon this while visiting NC had some nice trails and looked very enjoyable. The hiking paths seemed well maintained and the lake was pretty close to the road for viewing.

Many beautiful sights in Park system. Great boating and fishing opportunities. Some of the parks do not allow gas motors, making these areas perfect for distance swimming and paddle boarding (SUP). Great trails and birding year round.

Nice place to visit whether you want to go for a nature hike, picnic with your family, go fishing or boating...

Many outdoor activities for family and friends. We have had many family campouts and overnight stays at several campsite locations including Holly Point and Rolling View, each has it's benefits including typically ample parking at sites and convenient access to shower and restroom facilities within walking distance, firepits, and large flat tent pads. Boating, including canoe and kayak only access from the Beaver Dam area provides plenty of non-gas motorized water recreation and fishing. Hiking opportunities abound in all areas, in particular from the Falls Lake Dam area trails start from the parking lot at Falls of The Neuse Road where you can nike for hours on end with ample views of Falls Lake.

I've lived in and around Raleigh/Durham for 40+ years and only recently started taking advantage of Falls Lake. The more time I spent on and around the lake the more I realized how fortunate I am to have it so close by. It's not the biggest lake in NC, and gets crowded on summer weekends and holidays. But there are literally half a dozen different boat ramps, some of which have as many as 8 lanes and other are open 24/7 free of charge. The fishing must be good because bass boats are out nearly year round. There are several big camping areas, one of which has an exclusive boat ramp and miles and miles of hiking trails. It's not Yosemite National Park, but it's also essentially in my back yard, largely free and very well maintained. Give it a try if you're in the area.

We did the Duck Cove Hike with our 2 dogs. It was 1.2 miles of uphills & downhills...just enough to give the dogs some exercise. Great endpoint on Falls Lake with beautiful views. The park has many picnic shelters, a swimming area, and several hiking trails.

When I moved to Wake Forest, I was thrilled to find a lake area that was convenient. I would often take books to the lakeside beach area with friends, pack a lunch, and spend the day.However, as someone who spend a great deal of her life in GA on various lakes, it does leave a bit to be desired. But go check it out! Worth the trip.
