Reviews
"Lake Glendale includes a nice lake with access for fishing, swimming, hiking, and camping near the shore. Despite the state's budget problems the area is well maintained. It is possible to circumambulate the lake on the main trail. This is a good area for observing wildflowers and birds. We have never camped there, but have driven and walked through the campground several times on birdwatching trips. There is a full-time campground host, well maintained campsites, and a heated, year-around bathroom and shower facility."
"Swimming area is fenced off and only open on weekends. There's picnic tables, unfortunately, didn't have much time to check out if there were any trails. Only had outhouse toilets."
"The lake is beautiful. The beach is clean and has a concession stand. The camp sites are nice and surrounded by trees. There is a picnic area and boat launch as well. We used our kayaks several times. There's also a trail all the way around the lake. Great place to walk and bicycle rides."
"Was our base camp for two weeks while exploring various areas of Shawnee Forest. Great campground and our dogs love a daily swim in the lake."
"Fantastic place to camp! Flush toilets, showers, and very nice camp hosts. Sites were spacious and there is a good amount of growth between them for some seclusion. Pretty lake with cement boat launch, but the water was kinda smelly. Looking forward to returning!"
