Master Plan

Future development

The North Carolina Division of Parks and Recreation will be preparing a Master Plan for Mayo River State Park in Rockingham County beginning this fall.

This planning effort will focus on the park property encompassing approximately 2,500 acres. The property is linear in nature (16 miles of river corridor) and not contiguous; this will be a focus of the master plan. The plan will look at the needs of the park and the opportunities and constraints of the properties, and it will make recommendations for the future of the park.

In addition to the documentation and planning process, a public involvement process will allow input from local communities, stakeholders and the general public. At the culmination of the planning process, the final planning document will be prepared, and it will set the direction for improvements to Mayo River State Park for the next 20 years.
