The town of Eden, North Carolina is home to 14,500 residents, two gently flowing waterways, and three distinct downtown areas. The rivers are the Dan and the Smith and they flow directly through the center of town, giving Eden its nickname — ‘The Land of Two Rivers.’

In addition to paddling the Dan or floating the Smith, outdoor enthusiasts in Eden can be found camping or angling at Belews Lake, boating at Lake Reidsville, or road biking along the scenic Rockingham County bike route.
