Oquaga Creek State Park

"So sad. A really great park. So it melts down to gentrification and then closure after closure. The lack of funding cannot be a legitimate excuse for the deterioration and negligence. So please tell us now how this scam will play out. If that park is allowed to continue unchecked on it's present course sooner or later they'll close it and privatization will take place. I think that's what they're looking for. Stealing that which we all in part paid for will soon be gone. Please bring back the good things that this latest generation of miscreants have lost. Our pavilions, the Commissary by the beach. We've been scammed. Sure it's free now. But it is because they have made it not worth the cost of admission in it's presentcondition. Let's blame it on the feds. Because in the name of security they have done more damage here in the United States than the criminal element ever did to destroy this beautiful icon. People on floatation devices harassing people fishing. Threats against each other and I really don't care if it's real or fake. It's something you didn't see before now! I complained for sure."

"I took my Grandson hiking. The trail was easy to find. We didn't see any wildlife but we did find lots of places for the 5 year old to run and jump. There is a small stream with a bridge and he stopped and listened. He thought the sound was cool. The camping area was closed, but the beach was open. Picnic tables are in abundance."

"Came by to hike around the park today. Great weather as we che ked out cemetery, old mill, up to the old barn and down to the dam. Very enjoyable!"

"It's hard to imagine, but there are still places with no cell phone service. We drove a few miles away to a pull off spot with a view of the next mountain ridge over, and a cell phone tower in the distance. That was great! It gets truly dark at night, and this is the perfect place for stargazing. The hike around the pond is gentle and worth it. The water is refreshing. Beautiful nearby towns."
