Deep River has many wonderful brews! The Watermelon Lager is a favorite. From time to time they host food trucks and bands. Had a blast July 4th and could see the fireworks in downtown.

Bentonville Battlefield State Historic Site

The Battle of Bentonville, fought March 19-21, 1865, was the last full-scale action of the Civil War in which a Confederate army was able to mount a tactical offensive. This major battle, the largest ever fought in North Carolina, was the only significant attempt to defeat the large Union army of Gen. William T. Sherman during its march through the Carolinas in the spring of 1865.

There was so much to see and learn about the Civil War. There are walking tours as well as a 10 mile( if you dont get lost ), driving tour. They have a gift shop with nice souvenirs. The Haprer House was the highlight of the tour. If you enjoy history, a definite must see.

Clemmons Educational State Forest

Reviewed By JenEricTravelers - Fort Worth, United States

Beautiful hideaway that every family should enjoy, with or without kids. We happened upon it during our first day in NC (just moved here) and returned for a few hours. Not very busy, but you will pass a few people along the way. And the educational moments along the way are fun; I finally learned about a 'cord' of wood measurement.

Clayton Community Park

Reviewed By sushiboyfastaf - Clayton, United States

I met a friend at Clayton Community Park and this was my experience. The park itself is broken into numerous sections. There's a designated section for younger children which is great. The background noise from the tennis courts and baseball field gives you that wholesome American feeling. Around the exterior of the playground equipment, there's a walking trail. It's decently sized and wide enough to easily keep 6ft distance from other people. Overall, the park was great. The only downside (literally) is that there is a decently sized cliff near the trail. At first, this was an enjoyable site to see. That quickly changed when an infant baby child from a nearby house wandered a wee bit too close. As the baby-child approached the cliff, my friend and I looked at each other with concern, shrugged our shoulders, and swiftly carried on. Nothing could be done for the baby... Or so we thought. Luckily at the last moment, the baby's mother had finished her social media post and noticed that the child had wandered too close to the cliff. Alas the baby was saved, though no one cheered.

Plenty of parking near strip malls, as well as close enough proximity to stay in your choice of numerous hotels, restaurants and movie theatre. Worth the drive.
