Description
This natural and historic park is located along a two-mile stretch of the Eno River. The 371 acres of woods, waters and wildlife were once home to the Shocco, Occaneechi and Eno Indians.
The park is now home to the reconstructed water-powered grist mill that currently grinds corn and wheat, the restored McCown-Mangum House, a working blacksmith shop and the Hugh Mangum Museum of Photography which exhibits early 19th century works. General Sherman's cavalry camped here during the surrender negotiations at Bennett Place.
Approximately 1.5 miles of walking trails, canoeing and rafting are available. A variety of natural history programs, craft workshops and demonstrations and concerts are offered throughout the year, primarily on weekends. Home to Festival for the Eno each July 4th weekend.
