    • Mission

    Mattamuskeet National Wildlife Refuge falls under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, part of the Department of Interior. The mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is working with others to conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, plants, and their habits for the continuing benefit of the American people. We will continue to be a leader in fish and wildlife conservation, a stewards of lands and natural resources.

    About Us

    Mattamuskeet Lake, at about 40,000 acres, is the largest natural

    lake in North Carolina, and has about 10,000 acres of surrounding woodlands and water

    impoundments. Each winter we are home to thousands of migrating tundra swans, snow

    geese, Canada geese, and a wide variety of ducks. The waterfowl leaves in February-

    March. The refuge then becomes popular all spring, summer and fall for fishing and

    crabbing. Located in Hyde County (eastern North Carolina), the refuge is an easy drive

    to the ocean or some of our larger near-by towns. If you like rustic, rural, picturesque surroundings,

    away from bright city lights, we're just the place for you.
