Feel the Adventure . . . .

Come . . . . visit us . . . . at Cape Fear River Adventures and see nature at its finest in the "Heartland" of North Carolina. We are located on the pristine banks of the mighty Cape Fear River at the Hwy 421/401 Bridge in Lillington, NC.

Enjoy the natural beauty of the majestic Cape Fear River from Buckhorn near Corinth to the NC 217 Bridge in Erwin. Geological wonders abound that are best viewed from the vantage point of a canoe or kayak. Experience the silence and solitude that is unique to the rhythm of the canoe paddle. Absorb the history of the centuries old Cape Fear River as you canoe along the path the Native Americans traversed using the ancestors of the modern day canoe. Relive the legends of Raven Rock in the overnight canoe camps near the "Rock". As your canoe moves silently through the water, observe the wildlife overhead, on the banks, and beneath your paddles. Enjoy the "Thrill of Victory" when you make the catch of the day. Feel the adrenalin rush when you with your canoe successfully run the rapids.

For a much different canoeing experience, paddle on Rhodes Pond, a 461 acre body of "black" water created by a dam on the Black River. Rhodes Pond is located on Hwy 301, north of Godwin, NC. For the most avid canoeist and kayaker, it is one of the ultimate paddling experiences. Rhodes Pond offers plenty of opportunity for the bird-watching canoeist as ducks, geese, and many other birds use this as their feeding and breeding grounds. From the water level of a canoe, naturalists of all degrees will enjoy the incredible views which include lilies blooming in season and the beautiful cypress trees. The enthusiastic fisherman will feel plenty of excitement on Rhodes Pond as he silently stalks his prey by canoe and hauls it aboard.

Whether a seasoned paddler or a novice, exploring this region of North Carolina by canoe will create memories that will last a lifetime.
