McDowell Waterfront Deck - McDowell Nature Preserve

I just realized I didn't take any landscape photos. I hiked around for about an hour along the waterfront trails and was able to pick up all this trash. Lots of plastic. Lids, bottle caps, water bottles, chip bags, fishing lines, hooks, etc, Styrofoam pieces, glass bottles. People need to take their trash out with them. Otherwise, it's quite the place. Give a hoot, don't pollute. 🦉

A great place to simply get out and hang outdoors for a few hours. I love the waterfront seating area. You can have a little picnic, go fishing and hiking all in one day.

Beautiful waterfront Deck with picnic tables and charcoal grills available. Excellent view of Lake Wylie. Surrounded with trails and fishing spots where you can go on a nice date and fishing private if you so desire. Great for family or couples! Check out the campgrounds too!

The review is for the trail and the waterfront deck. We went on a hot and sunny day. We tool the Chestnut trail. The trail was pristine, mostly shaded and has good elevation. Brings one close to walking in the nature. The waterfront deck is nice and brings cool breeze even in a hot sunny day.

Incredible place for the outdoor fan! Can't wait to bring my stand-up paddle board back!
