The lake is 34 miles long with over 20,000 acres of water surface and 350 miles of shoreline. Lake Gaston offers you a choice of swimming, wind surfing, water skiing and other boating activities.

For the explorer in all of us, the Roanoke Canal Trail offers a seven mile walk, stretching from the Roanoke Rapids Lake Dam to the old corn mill in Weldon.
