Holly Point V

Put In - Located in Holly Point State Park on New Light Road. Take Six Forks to 98 and cross 98 which becomes New Light Road. Stay on New Light Road until you see the park on the right. Shinleaf park you will pass on the way on the right. I camped in site 126, which is right on the water. Cost is 15 dollars for a non-electric/water site.
Distance/Time - 7.3 Miles/3 hours, 3.4 Miles/2 hours, 7.7 Miles/2 hours
Difficulty - Easy/Average
Trip Directions - Made 3 trips, the afternoon was to the Shineleaf hike in camping area. Did a night trip to the New Light Bridge area. The next morning made a run up to the Shineleaft Group Camp area and then the B.W. Wells Homestead(Rock Cliff Farm).
Scenery - Weather was really nice, and the water level is 3+ feet over full pool. I could cut across the peninsula that I usually have to paddle around to get to BW Wells.
Hazards - Motor boats were out in force.
