Boiling Spring Lakes is a quiet town eight miles northwest of
Southport. The town derives its name from a boiling spring (see
photo) that flows with an incredibly pure stream of water.
The town's centerpiece, the 150-acre "Big Lake", is
just one of more than 50 natural and man-made lakes in the area.
The "Big Lake" is fed by five springs and Allen's Creek,
and is 2-1/2 miles long with 10 miles of shoreline.
Many years ago, the spring was known as Bouncing Log Spring,
inasmuch as a large chunk of petrified wood was tossed and churned
in the water gushing up from the ground. Eventually, there was
no longer a log being bounced around by the upward thrust of groundwater,
and the name was changed to the Boiling Spring. State geologists
have calculated that the spring discharges approximately 43 million
gallons of water each day. The entire area seems enchanted with
tall pines, oaks, and sweet gums hovering over the spring. In
the early spring, damsel flies of red, green, and blue dart about
the area and butterflies of all colors and descriptions flutter
in the thickets. Two protected areas, Boiling Spring Lakes Nature Trail and Boiling Spring Lakes Preserve are located within the boundaries of the the Green Swamp (View Map). The Green Swamp is the largest wetlands area in North Carolina and one largest in the nation.
