The Gateway to Fort Bragg
Located just a few short miles northwest of Fayetteville, the little town of Spring Lake is quiet country living minutes from big-city convenience. Spring Lake offers plenty of shopping and dining options, outstanding outdoor recreation, and a variety of new homes and neighborhoods. One of its largest draws is its proximity to Fort Bragg; in fact, it’s often referred to as the “Gateway to Fort Bragg”. However, that’s hardly all this charming town has to offer! If you’re looking for peace, privacy, and convenience, then Spring Lake might be the ideal community for you. Take a closer look.
Spotlights of Spring Lake
Carvers Creek State Park
Carvers Creek State Park is a unique blend of history and outdoor recreation. Here, you can enjoy hiking, biking, horseback riding, and fishing—and visit the historic family home and farm of James Stillman Rockefeller.
Spring Lake Outpost
Get ready to adventure on the water! Spring Lake Outpost is located on the Lower Little River, which leads to the Cape Fear River. The Outpost offers kayak, canoe, and raft rentals, as well as return shuttle services. But you’re also welcome to bring your own boat.
Effortless Commuting
Spring Lake is located about five miles north of Fort Bragg, making it a popular choice for military personnel. However, this charming town is also a short drive from I-295, Downtown Fayetteville, and even I-95. So there’s really nothing out of reach of Spring Lake.
