Bald Point State Park
146 Box Cut RdNeighborhoods
This old river community was built in the late 1970’s. The dirt roads wind past an eclectic variety of uniquely built homes, some old and some new. As you walk the short distance to the river from the cottage expect the friendly neighbors to say hi. Children walk the neighborhood and play near the roads; and the roads can be a bit bumpy after hard rain so go slowly as you drive.
