During the hot Summer month Sennet Swimming Hole is the perfect spot to beat the heat at the cool deep swimming whole. Sennett hole is also known as Turtle home. Turtle Hole is part of the Eno River. Only two hours away from the Queen City!
Eno River State Park:
Eno River State Park—like its namesake—flows near urban areas of Durham and Orange counties with five scattered access areas, each just minutes from town amenities. The Eno River’s waters roll past mature forests, historic mill and home sites and river bluffs covered with flowering shrubs and across fords used by early settlers. The park offers nearly 30 miles of trails along a swift, shallow stream that’s popular with anglers, photographers and sightseers. Backcountry camping at individual sites and group campsites is available but all equipment must be carried in. Canoeing and kayaking are permitted but sometimes difficult due to shallow water.
