Kerr Lake is big is an understatement. Its over 850 miles of shoreline stretches across Vance County and the North Carolina/Virginia state line, making it one of the largest lakes in the Southeast. It's also one of the most beautiful. From wooded shores to secluded coves to tranquil picnic areas. Located conveniently along Interstate 85, Kerr Lake is just a short drive from Raleigh (45 miles), Richmond, Va. (110 miles), Charlotte (180 miles) and Washington, D.C. (200 miles). Vance County Tourism invites you to explore Kerr Lake and enjoy the fishing, camping, boating, skiing, sailing, wind surfing, nature walking, bird watching, golfing and even the bright lights of fireworks in celebration of the Fourth..

Lake Oklawaha has been a favorite destination for thousands of people and their families and friends. After great demand, it was decided to allow RVers to purchase their own lots at the park and in doing so, take advantage of all that the facility has to offer. The changes at the Park are many, much to the delight of those who have visited lately. Located on a bluff overlooking the 13,000-acre Lake Oklawaha (also known as the Rodman Reservoir), the park is surrounded by the 400,000-acre Ocala National Forest. The park has taken the best nature has to offer and enhanced it with the amenities and conveniences desired by today's RVers. We have 3,700 feet of privately owned water frontage on magnificent Lake Oklawaha!
