Reviews
"We spent a sunny fall morning here with our kids. It was nice and peaceful, just a few people were walking their dogs. It is a beautiful lake, we liked it in the summer as well. The kids had fun rearranging rocks on the beach, collecting fall leaves. It was a little bit muddy, but we wore hiking boots. It is an amazing place, even in the fall. It has a few picnic tables, where we ate our snacks. The restrooms were closed."
"We loved bringing a little picnic lunch to the lake sitting in a beautifully shaded area overlooking the crystal clear lake. The water in lake blue ridge is fantastic and clear. The swim area is well marked. There was ample parking and several picnic tables, but room to bring your own as well. The best part is that the park is dog friendly. The water’s edge is very rocky underfoot in a wide swath despite the sand, absolutely very much requiring soled water shoes or at least some secure flip flopping slides."
"Good place to spend sometime. Well maintained changing and washrooms with plenty of parking. Best for boating and fishing."
"Great place to spend the day with kids. My 4 yo daughter had a blast swimming and playing with rocks. The water was warn and calm… there’s rock everywhere, so you need to wear water shoes. Restroom was clean. There’s a fresh water shower outside of restrooms in case you want to refresh after swimming."
"Went in the afternoon and really wasn’t very busy. There were people there but not crowded. There are lots and lots of rocks on the bottom so make sure to have water shoes. You can see into the water for a little ways out, but then it’s too dark/deep. Water was cold but bearable. If I had to guess probably around 70 degrees. You pay by deposit box."
