Lake Wheeler Park

Raleigh, North Carolina

Welcome to the beautiful Lake Wheeler Park located on the shores of Lake Wheeler in Raleigh, North Carolina. Lake Wheeler itself is a reservoir that was built by the United States Army Corps of Engineers in 1956 and to this day still serves as a big water supply for the City of Raleigh.
