Reviews of Grayson Lake Damsite Shelters
"Easy access, very convenient."
"Below the dam is a very nice area to picnic, fish, play some outdoor games, or walk the nearby trails. I am posting this review to make a correction to the map. Some online maps show this area near the dam to be where the campground is located. It is not. The campground is located farther up the road along Rt. 7. You will pass the Clifty Creek boat ramp and cross one bridge over Clifty Creek as you drive. Look for the campgrounds on the right, in the area of the Hidden Cove golf course. Turn in at the golf course. If you cross a second bridge over the lake and come to the Bruin area boat ramp, you’ll see a sign for the Elliott county line and know you have went too far. The campground and golf course are between those bridges."
"Great spot for kayaking BUT lock your stuff up, last time I was here someone stole my trailer while on the water and we had 8 of us with our kayaks. Locals say this happens ALL THE TIME here. Just prepare and be smart!"
"This review is for the trail across the road from the Marina near the spillway. The trail provides great access to a protected area with a lot of biodiversity. There is a vernal pool in the environmental education field that harbors spotted salamanders during their spring migration. There is a Great Blue Heron rookery near the standing water. Hikers can do a smaller section if they like. There is a huge Sycamore close to where you first take the steps next to Little Sandy. A nice mix of trees and native plants in the field. Lots of wildflowers, mushrooms, and wildlife. Mushrooms include oysters, milkies, chanterelles, hedgehogs, puffballs, beefsteak, chicken of the woods, hen of the woods, cauliflower, and plenty others. I’ve even seen a bear! Easy access from I-64 for anybody coming through Grayson."
