Good place to walk

John Legends ancestors were slaves along this river. Nash County, NC.

There are some really nice spots along the tar river, but it’s always dirty. Been trying out the fishing with not much luck.

One of ten most endangered rivers in the US?

Awesome historic location!

Beautiful and wonderful for anyone to get a good look at Nature's Wonders!?

It's home

I prefer water in my river, not tar

The river I grew up on and in Some of the best days of my life were spent here

Getting to b a popular destination with new craft brewery and other attractions.

Great places to explore!

Food could could be better and could be cleaner inside.

So honey and friendly. Really makes you feel comfortable.

Good place to go boating, relaxing, fishing.

Beavers are building a lot of dams, on the western side of Pitt County. They are causing flooding, just from our typical rain...!

Yup, just driving over the river. Lots of water, rains got it up. I probably wouldn't drink out of it without boiling and filtering the water somehow, but what do I know, I not a survival expert.

Good ramp. No fish

This boardwalk is a nice place to walk for exercise or you can bring a blanket to relax on the grassy area. They also have a play area for the kids. During the summer they have music in the park and various festivals. I attended an awesome barbecue and seafood festival this past summer.

I was checking out the water levels. It was way out of it's banks.

Great fun for the family. My dog loved it as well

It had flooding problems why they don't make a dam for Greenville nc

Great for family and friends time

I love the new Boat Access and pier. It's Beautiful down on "my rivah" even when Mother Nature is "all stirred up" and the winds howl and the waters flood their banks and go wherever they so choose. If you live near water, as I do, one understands that it's the price of admission for an "E" ticket ride... sometimes she gets a bit Bumpy. HOWEVER! I do have ONE complaint There's no where for folks to put their garbage therefore they throw it on the ground or WORSE, in the RIVER. I'm NOT happy about LITTERING! @NCDOT and @NC Wildlife Resources Commission what can be proactively put in place to STOP the LITTERING?? Garbage cans? Dumpster? Cameras? Recycle Bins? Doesn't matter to me HOW the problem is solved, only that it's solved. This past Friday, I went to the river with my other half and our ? dog. It's so beautiful and peaceful and even quiet (during the week... hahaha) We go at least once a week. Last Friday, I picked up TWO FULL grocery bags FULL of LITTER! This is unacceptable. Most could have been put in a Recycle Bin. The WORST thing I picked up? A used, SOAKING wet USED Adult Female (or small male) pullups type Adult Diaper. ADULT DIAPER! Let me repeat that; adult Someone Old Enough To KNOW Better! I'm a responsible conservationist. I hate Littering. Not only for what it does to our waterways and landscape but also our wildlife. @NC DOT and @NC Wildlife Resources Commission PLEASE get INVOLVED and Support the citizens that take the time to pick up Other People's trash and garbage (even though we didn't put it there) Help US keep NC Green and Clean Maybe @River Keepers? Don't allow a bunch of inconsiderate, entitled, selfish JERKS to ruin it for the rest of us. Thanks in advance. Sincerely, Lindy Barr Cowpen Landing Boat Ramp

Absolutely love the fishing and boating! Take regular trips drifting down the river. Many good memories.

I grew up fishing in this river. All kinds of wildlife to be seen and alot of great boating access.

This is a nice river by Little Washington.
