One of the most distinctive visitor attractions in the United States, a delightful park that appeals to all age groups, is a place you’ve probably never heard of, located in a town you’ve also probably never heard of.
Scotland Neck, North Carolina—located roughly midway between North Carolina’s capital city of Raleigh and Virginia’s capital city of Richmond—sits 19 miles east of Interstate 95 and 29 miles south of the Virginia border astride Route 258, which doubles as its Main Street. The town is so small (population 2,029) that it doesn’t have a traffic light.
