About Mayo River State Park

The Mayo River runs through 2,778 acres of protected land that adjoins a Virginia state park carrying the same name. The park was authorized by the General Assembly in 2003, making it one of the newer additions to the North Carolina park system. Its acreage stretches along the river's course near the North Carolina and Virginia state line.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
