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 67, which has a 20 yard trail down to the lake. The lake was four feet above full pool. Cost is 20 dollars for a non-electric/water site.
Distance/Time - 6.6 Miles, 2.4 Miles
Difficulty - Average/Easy
Trip Directions - Made 2 trips. The first one is without the dog and the second is when she arrives around dinner time. The dog is still hanging in there and also sleeps better in the tent than at home. Must be the fresh air.
Scenery - Cool fall day with low humidity.
Hazards - None, middle of the week not much boat traffic.
