What to Do and See
MOTHER NATURE’S PLAYGROUND
Long known as the Mother County because many other North Carolina Counties (and the whole state of Tennessee) were carved out of Bladen County’s original footprint, we are now called Mother Nature’s Playground. Why? Because here in Bladen County, you can find abundant outdoor experiences.
Jet ski across White Lake in the morning or cruise across Jones Lake in your kayak that afternoon.
Test your stamina on the single track at Brown’s Creek Mountain Bike Park and Nature Trail.
Hike through miles of trails lined with longleaf pines in the Bladen Lakes State Forest.
Challenge your partner to a round of disc golf at Tory Hole Park or a serious game of traditional golf at Vineyard Golf Course.
What do you care? You are outside in the beautiful North Carolina weather!
