Morse Park Transformation Underway
As restoration efforts continue for beautiful Lake Lure, the Town of Lake Lure Public Works Team is also working hard to rebuilding Morse Park—and the transformation is well underway!
While significant construction is still taking place around Washburn Marina, visitors are welcome to enjoy Morse Park. Parking is available in the Morse Park parking lot. Just be mindful not to block construction areas or crews.
As you face Lake Lure from the marina area, you’ll find the pathway to the park entrance on the left. Follow it and you’ll discover a peaceful space coming back to life.
Inside the park, you’ll find:
* Picnic tables perfect for a relaxing break
* The brand-new Kaboom Playground Set for families to enjoy
* The charming Lake Lure Gazebo
* Plenty of benches to sit, unwind, and take it all in.
Whether you’re watching the progress, enjoying the scenery, or simply soaking in the fresh air, Morse Park is once again becoming a special place for the community.
Come take a stroll and see the transformation for yourself!
Looking Ahead
A large portion of Morse Park currently holds sand and dirt, which will be used to elevate areas throughout the park. Once this phase is complete, grass will be planted to help restore a lush, green landscape.
The Town of Lake Lure is compiling valuable public input from the recent comprehensive planning process. This feedback will help guide future decisions and shape the next phase of amenities provided in Morse Park.
