About the Park

About the Park

96.8 acres of beauty, adventure, and community in the heart of North Carolina's Piedmont region.

Our Vision

Newsom Venue Park is a multi-purpose destination designed to combine an elegant event and retreat venue with modern-day education, outdoor recreation, family experiences, business gatherings, and overnight stays.

Located at 300 Newsom Park Drive in Denton, North Carolina, our 96.8-acre property sits in the Piedmont region with easy drive-time access from multiple nearby cities — giving us a wide and diverse base for weddings, retreats, and recurring programming.

Our model is designed for year-round traffic: events drive peak weekends while cabins, trails, and lake access stabilize weekday and off-season demand.
