Sustainable Travel

“There is only one earth and we should go out and see it. I like hotels, which look for sustainability. It is not only protecting the ecology, but also taking care for the local business and culture. I recommend the medal for eco accomodation. Let’s protect our earth. Sustainable travel is travelling with responsibility.”

When planning a trip to Clemmons, there are several distinct points of interest to consider: paved trails around Village Point Lake, fishing opportunities at the lake and along the Yadkin River, a seasonal Saturday market, and the history of the Clemmons Milling Company. These topics offer different focal points. For the market, the season, day of the week, and time are key; the Greenway and fishing are outdoor activities, while the Milling Company is about local history. Plan your stay around what interests you most.

Greenway, Lake, and Fishing

The Village Point Greenway has nearly three-quarters of a mile of paved trails around Village Point Lake. Its length, paved surface, and route around the lake give your outing a clear framework. If you’re looking for a trail by the water, you can factor these features into your plans. The Greenway is also connected to sidewalks along Village Point Drive, providing an additional point of reference for the route.

The Village Point Greenway and Fishing Pier is also home to the StoryWalk, an interactive outdoor reading experience. It adds an outdoor reading activity to the themes of trails and fishing. If you’re interested in stories and reading in the open air, you can consider the StoryWalk as a focus for your stay.

Fishing is available year-round at the Village Point Greenway and Fishing Pier, at a stocked lake. Clemmons also offers fishing opportunities along the Yadkin River. The main difference between these two fishing options is the body of water: Village Point Lake on the one hand and the Yadkin River on the other. If fishing is one of your interests, you can take these different waters into account when choosing your activities.

Plan Your Market Visit Around the Season

The Clemmons Farmers Market is held seasonally on Saturdays from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. at the Jerry Long Family YMCA in Clemmons. It is limited to Saturday mornings and takes place only during the season. This distinguishes the market from year-round fishing at Village Point Lake: a market visit depends on the season and day of the week. If the market is an important reason for your trip, check the current dates and opening hours in advance.

The History of the Clemmons Milling Company

The Clemmons Milling Company was built on Hampton Road near its intersection with U.S. Highway 158. It remained in the Brewer family for 68 years and was often called Brewer Mill by locals. The names offer different points of reference for local history: Clemmons Milling Company is the company’s name, while Brewer Mill is the commonly used local name. Its long association with the Brewer family is another part of the story. Together, a specific road location, a family name, and a name commonly used in the community help provide context for local history.
