lake related activities
Water sports such as kayaking around the lakes here: lake Fayetteville, lake Wedington, Beaver Lake etc. (There are quite a few lakes around here). We like lake Fayetteville because it is only 10 minutes away, close to the mall, restaurants, and trails. It also has some great food trucks right by the lake. If you like food trucks, you should stop by there! If you plan on kayaking etc during busy season , try calling ahead of time to make sure they have equipment to rent.
