Enjoy a half day of spectacular fly fishing at The Refuge, a fishing paradise, hidden along the banks of Boone Fork Creek. Boone Fork Creek is a Catch and Release only stream that starts at Price Lake dam off the Blue Ridge Parkway. It is located at the Headwaters of the Holston River Watershed at an altitude of 3500 feet on the Eastern Continental Divide. Fish on pristine, private waters with the highest water classification in the state. Because the refuge is private water, no fishing license is required and there is no closed season.
