"Spent time here making family memories. Brothers fished. Learned I could not bait a hook. Park is well-planned & maintained. Would enjoy spending time walking the perimeter of the lake."

"Beautiful area. Nice tent camping areas. Very peaceful and pretty good fishing as well. A shower house would be a big plus."

"I was excited to go here because I heard there are a lot of trails but unfortunately most of the trails had downed trees on almost all of them so I had to maneuver my way around. Other than that, the camping areas seemed to be really well maintained. Bathrooms were pretty pristine in my opinion. I literally had the entire park to myself on a beautiful day. Lake views were nice. I'll go back in Spring to see if trails are more manageable. There weren't a lot of steep hills or anything, but I did get a nice little workout."
