Playground, sandy beach, shallow water for kids, paved picnic table paths, restrooms, occasional dumpsters... it's pretty nice. The picnic paths are wheelchair and stroller accessible.
Parking payment is made via electronic devices. Currently $8 a vehicle.
However, the goat head stickers on the way to the beach area are atrocious. Do not go barefoot through here. Platform shoes recommended, or stilts. Aka, by the children, piggyback rides.
Hopefully it's because it's at the end of the season and overgrown due to how they seed. Maybe they'll use some sort of weed prevention before the next swimming season.
Best lake to camping. You can fishing, can kayaking and even you can go swimming but don’t swim during winter seasons. You can also make campfire. Great place to spend quality time with your love ones.
The little area had everything you would be looking for. Swimming areas, playgrounds, restrooms, rv hookups, to grills and tables throughout the grounds. When we go back, this is probably the area we will be going to. It wasn't super crowded, and the kids were able to have the canoes. Great area for kids, adults and dogs.
This is such a great place ! Bathrooms are clean an spacious the water has a sand bottom and the only reason I did t give it a five star was because there was too much duck droppings near the edge of water . That was a very unpleasant sight to enjoy going in the water seeing kids stepping on it . Other than that it was amazing place !
