A short walk through the woods from the main parking lot, there's a gorgeous covered pavilion on a small bluff over the water, with steps down to a broad fishing dock over the water. The boat rental stand at the main parking lot also doubles as a snack bar. Follow Plantation south to U.S. 11 and make a left. Pass Hollins College and make another left on Route 648, Reservoir Road. It dead-ends at the Carvins Cove parking lot.
Parking is free.
