"Cleanest Park I've ever been too. Awesome friendly staff. Lake is great,huge campground. Grounds are immaculate for a state park!!"
"Fun, nice, family friendly spot for swimming, camping, fishing, hiking, etc. The water very nice and the lake is beautiful!! (and I almost drowned because the line went out farther then it was supposed to and the sand just dipped down 8 ft lol) But you swim at your own risk so it's acceptional!"
"We really enjoyed our time at Hardy Lake. Having a state park pass (annual membership for $50 to get into parks is well worth the investment). The lake didn't get too crowded and the weather was perfect each time we went. The restrooms were open and had soap! We kept our distance from people even in the water. The temperature was amazing. You can grill, play st the park, have a picnic (small beach looking area), build sand castles.... Had so much fun!!!!"
"I have been going here since I was a kid in the 80's. The place hasn't changed much. The grass areas are always mowed, the beach was clean and nice. My kids loved the water and the play sets up on top the hill from the beach. They have built in grills near the picnic tables and by the beach. No need to waste space in your own vehicle bringing your grill. Out of 6 of us. I am the only one who ended up with a leach on my foot. I blame that on going into the deep and having my feet in the mud at the bottom. But out of 30 years of going here. I have only had one leach on me. That was in 2016. Its a lake, they all have leaches. Great place to stay for the day and/or camp. Small fee at the gate to get into the beach."
