FANTASY LAKE ADVENTURE PARK
WAKE FOREST, NC
Fantasy Lake Adventure Park is a one-of-a-kind outdoor water adventure destination built around a clear quarry lake in Wake Forest, North Carolina. The property has a big, open-air lake setting with sandy beach areas, wooded surroundings, rock quarry walls, and plenty of room for families, groups, and outdoor lovers to spread out for the day. What makes the place stand out is the variety of activities all packed into one location: guests can bounce across the floating inflatable water park, bring younger kids to the junior water area, go scuba diving, paddle around by kayak or stand-up paddleboard, or play pickleball on the property.
