Overhills, North Carolina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Overhills is an unincorporated community located in the Johnsonville Township of Harnett County near the Cumberland County town of Spring Lake. The community was originally a 20,000 acre estate owned by the Percy Rockefeller family but later acquired by the federal government and is now mostly located inside nearby Fort Bragg (Powell 1968, p. 87). A Donald Ross-designed golf course was part of the original estate and is also now located inside Fort Bragg. Other area landmarks include Overhills High School.
