During the historic event of Hurricane Florence in September 2018, the Trent River rose approximately 25 feet. The highest in local memory, as shown belowFlorence flooded nearly 75 homes in Pollocksville. Businesses closed, the Town Hall was completely submerged except for the roof, and the sewer pump stations failed. Rebuilding has been slow and difficult. |

The Pollocksville Waterfront Park is grassy knoll that offers rest alongside Highway 17 and a gorgeous access to the Trent River. Park amenities include a covered picnic shelter, a fishing dock, a kayak launch, and a NC Wildlife Boat Ramp. Among locals it is a favorite spot to bring lunch and catch a few fish.
The Trent River headwaters are in the middle of Jones County, and flow northeast into the Neuse River 12 miles in a scenic meander. The river is popular among anglers and paddlers, and is well suited for all nature enthusiasts. The Pollocksville Wildlife Boat Ramp offers two floating docks on either side of a sloping concrete ramp. The kayak launch offers ADA accessibility for paddlers of all ages and abilities!
