Greenfield Lake Boathouse Explore and enjoy this Wilmington hidden gem aboard a paddle boat, kayak, or canoe! Every paddle supports Cape Fear River Watch. Plan yours! ⤵️

No tricks here, Greenfield Lake Boathouse will be open on Halloween! We will be giving out one treat (free refreshment) to each paddler in costume from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., while supplies last. 🍬

Then, join us after hours to explore the lake at ghoulden hour. This family-friendly guided kayak tour will offer sights (but no frights!) of fish, reptiles, and roosting birds as we creep through the cypresses. Along the way, we will learn about the threats haunting the lake, and how protecting its water quality helps protect the Cape Fear River Basin as a whole.

We will have both single and tandem kayaks available for this paddle. Boats are limited—grab yours at tr.ee/gflboathouse before they’re gone! 👻

They were very convincing! 🙂‍↕️

We know just the place: Greenfield Lake Boathouse is open for paddle boat (plus kayak & canoe) rentals from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. every Thursday-Sunday. And if you needed even more of a reason: every rental supports Cape Fear River Watch.
