The picturesque small town of Lillington is not the largest in Harnett County, yet it fulfills the important role of county seat.  The county library and other county offices are at home in Lillington, where neighborhoods and districts are graced by scenic views of the lovely Cape Fear River as it meanders through the town.  The community provides a welcoming atmosphere that is equally well suited to raising families, starting a business, or retiring in a serene and comfortable setting.  The town boasts a thriving business community that continues to draw the interest of new enterprises.  Recreational opportunities are first-rate in the region that surrounds Lillington.  Cultural, educational, and entertainment attractions are less than 25 miles from home in Fayetteville.
