What Guests Are Saying
The Northbank Day Use Area Shelter is praised for its stunning views, cleanliness, and suitability for events like weddings and club picnics, with ample space and facilities such as pavilions and grills. Visitors appreciate the variety of activities available, including playgrounds and walking paths. However, a notable downside is the lack of running water in the park, which can be challenging for larger gatherings.

The entire Carter's Dam and Lake area was the best part of my 3-day birthday trip. The lake was so beautiful and the Northbank Park gave the best views of both the lake and the dam. The two overlook areas near the Nature Center had nice views as well. The clerk at the Nature Center could have shown a little professionalism. He never addressed me as I came in because he was sleeping on the desk with his phone audio loud blasting a football game. The Northbank Park has a basketball court, a few covered pavilions, a volleyball net, a paved sidewalk that goes around the perimeter of the park and several overlook areas where you can view the lake and the dam better.

We rented both shelters at Northbank May 7th We asked to have the power fixed on the small shelter and it was not fixed. We have it rented in September as well we rent it every September for our reunion if it is not fixed this year we will not rent here again. Also when it is rented they need to be sure to cut the grass.

Directions were not accurate and the shelters are marked with numbers that were not on our reservation. The tables were dirty so bring a table cloth. The park was great and so were the views. Clean and well kept.

Beautiful views! Perfect place for a birthday party or family reunion. We will definitely plan to gather in the area again!
