My little wanted to go to a museum, so when I found that Morrow Mountain State Park not only had a…read moremuseum but a scenic overlook, I knew we needed to visit. A very quick drive later, we were at the State Park and enjoying all that it had to offer. I appreciate that the roads within the State Park are paved, as the terrain can be steep at times and with the rains we've had, a gravel road would have washed out. The museum is small, but highly informative. I learned so many new things about Stanly County and the types of rocks and minerals found within the county. After the museum, we drove around the State Park, exploring the many camping sites, seeing the Kron house, and ending up at the scenic overlook. There was one hairpin turn that you have to be careful with when meeting oncoming vehicles, but it was a very serene drive. I thought it was awesome they had a "summit snack bar" that was open, although we didn't wander over. The views are breathtaking! Such a great place to visit on a weekend or during the week when time permits.

Badin Lake in Troy, NC is one of those places that makes you slow down and realize just how…read morebeautiful North Carolina truly is. And if you're going to spend $15 on a pass to Uwharrie National Forest, this place is damn sure worth it. (Tip: Just pick up your pass at the local gas station about 7 or 8 miles before the forest entrance). Whether you're looking for a peaceful walk, a morning run, a quiet place to think, or somewhere to spend time with family or someone special, this place should certainly have a spot on your list. Getting here is a bit of a 4x4 adventure. I come out to Uwharrie to do a little off roading, so trust me when I say the access roads can get a bit rough, especially after a good rain. I'd recommend at least a truck, and four wheel drive is even better. Could you make it in a Corolla? I could (lol)... But yes probably, just be cool/calm and good at picking a line and avoiding the ruts. Personally, I wouldn't. The extra ground clearance is worth it. Truthfully, anywhere in Uwharrie will lead to one of the most peaceful spots ever, but today i found Badin Lake and this is something special! The paved walking paths are in fantastic condition and exceptionally well maintained/clean (and no trash anywhere but where it belongs). Along the trail are several breakout paths leading to pretty new observation decks/personal fishing piers. Perfect for sitting or relaxing a bit and taking in some great scenery, or simply listening to the water and/or watching the boats riding by. One thing that hit me when leaving was how refreshing it was to see a public recreation area that's maintained this well. Yup, whether you're walking, running, doing photography, fishing, kayaking, or simply getting outside to clear your head, I'd absolutely recommend making this trip. It's peaceful without feeling isolated and scenic without feeling overcrowded. Badin Lake is a place I'm happy to highlight, it deserves the attention!

Being a long time fan of the National Park service, I love to go camping at their campgrounds when…read morepossible. Given the pandemic, finding opening at any campground has proven difficult, especially if you want a last minute get away. And by last minute I mean two weeks in advance... Making reservations at Badin Campground is super easy since its all done on the web. There are mentions of first come, first serve sites but when we arrived there was a no vacancy sign at the entrance so I'm pretty sure the first come, first serve is pre-pandemic policy. Checking in is a breeze too since there really is no need to check in. The loops are small enough to quickly find your site and each site post is marked with the site number and a placard with the visitors last name and dates of stay. We stayed at site 35 which is the first site on the left of the upper loop. These are primitive only sites but the bathrooms, showers and water is a short walk away. I felt we were secluded enough from the other sites that it was semi-private but you could still see the other sites clearly. Even though the posted quiet hours are from 10pm to 6am DO NOT expect it to be anything but quiet. There were multiple sites close to our loop that had very loud conversations well into the morning hours but mostly, there is non-stop traffic from four wheelers, hunters, etc. that fly down the road mere feet from the campsite entrance. This is a playground for off-roaders and a very popular spot for, what looks to be, a mecca for off-roaders. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the site. I would probably consider Arrowhead campground for our next stay as it seemed to be a little quieter. BTW - no - alcohol is permitted. This seems to be a hot topic on forums of people not knowing and getting fined.

Trust me, this is no easy feat!). Teddy usually falls asleep on the ride home from camp as she's so exhausted from her doggy adventures but you can tell how happy and incredibly well cared for she is during her time away. We've had issues with boarding facilities in the past (check my reviews if interested) which left us hesitant to booking, especially considering the expense that comes with larger breed considerations. However, not only does TCC have better care, facilities, and customer service; they are also easier on the checkbook. Teddy definitely has a home away from home in TCC, and even though our new move puts us another 15 minutes out, we wouldn't go anywhere else!
