Reviews
"Beautiful park on lake with many facilities, lots of walking trails, picnic tables, restrooms and beautiful swimming areas. There are lots of rocky underwater areas with fallen trees that can pose danger. I hope the park officials clear them up even for kayaking if not for swimming. Currently the water is super clear with lots of migratory birds."
"Beach area is good, but can be better and clean. Too many small rocks and pebbles near the shore, which makes it poky but not hazardous. Kids can enjoy the fresh water in hot summer. There are enough parking around the park. Restrooms are not so clean."
"This is my special place. I walk there almost everyday. Once around the trail is about 1.4 miles. There are also picnic tables, beaches, even complimentary life jackets hanging out for kids or even adults. (Please return them where you found them). Swimming areas are roped off for your safety. People often fish off the sides of the walking trails. There are swings to relax. It’s a great place. You do have to pay with a credit card to get in, $6 per car. You can also get in with your yearly pass."
"I visited this park with my wife and 6 month old child. This place is very easy to navigate and has plenty of pathways. It is definitely an all day event if you want to explore the entire park. The beaches looked secluded and beautiful. This is definitely one of my favorite parks by far!!!!"
