About
White Lake is one of thousands of Carolina Bays dotting the eastern coast of North America from Delaware to Central Florida. Commonly speculated to be a pre-historic depression formed by a meteorite shower, it is a shallow, naturally water-fed lake. The shoreline is a gently sloping decline to a maximum depth of 8’ to 10’, depending on the seasonal rainfall. Because of its intrinsic geological formation and features, this 1200-acre lake is home to Great Blue herons, red-eared slider turtles, cypress trees with Spanish moss, an occasional otter, and stately bald eagles. Within the past 100 years, it has become a coveted vacation and permanent home destination in southeastern North Carolina.
Additional excitement includes triathlons, summer concerts, antique car shows, and the acclaimed White Lake Water Festival.
It's a grand adventure bursting with water-doused activities and rollicking laughter. It’s a lazy reprieve found deep in the embrace of a dangling hammock, a best-seller in your hand.
That’s our story.
