At the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, in the middle of a lush forest, lies an aquatic enthusiast’s dream. Nine boat launches, six sandy beaches, and the clear water of Philpott Lake are at your disposal, as well as a marina and fishing dock. Get an even better view of this pristine lake from the top of Philpott Dam.

The Dogwood Glen Trail is a great trek whether you’re on a bike, a horse, or just your own two feet.
