Lake Drummond, VA - Anyone know if OK to fly there?

[naiku]

In a couple weeks I will be in the area of Lake Drummond and trying to figure out if I can fly my drone there, looking on the B4UFly app shows it should be fine, but I want to be absolutely certain before flying. Problem is I might not actually be able to get to the lake, but want to be prepared if I can. I will be on the side near the Dismal Swamp Canal Trail parking and cannot see any trails that I can use to hike into the lake from that area. I am though both hopeful that there is a trail to get to the lake from that side and that it is possible to fly there.

Thanks.

Thanks, that rules out the drone then!! Looks like I'll just take the camera.
