From jct Hwy 66 & Hwy 362: Go 3 mi E on Hwy 362.
Great place to unwind or take the kids for some fresh air or a picnic. Plenty of seating and tables. Beach area is pretty good sized and not too far of a walk from parking lot. Great photo opportunities with tons of open space. Fishing looks great (with license) and boat ramps also.
Always a great place to go to relax or spend time with family & friends.
Multitude of little and big areas around the lake to get together to fish or have parties.
Venues available to rent.
Close to some local restaurants.
Quite a few boat docking locations.
Restrooms are usually closed until its officially Spring.
WE LOVED THIS PARK!! We took our mountain bikes on the trails. We took our kayaks out on the water. We had breakfast by the museum and met such wonderful people. The park was clean. The only downside was that the Blackberry Island trail wasn't groomed, and we weren't able to ride the trail. They even came around with tootsie rolls for the dad's for a Father's Day treat.
We’ve stayed here many times. Will not use the ceiling fan. It’s filthy and has been for years. I used to change clothes in the bunk bed room. The blinds are so badly damaged anyone can see in at any time. DISGUSTING. The little shelf above the tiny bathroom sink could use painted very badly. In addition, the toilet bowl cleaner needs cleaned/replaced. It’s absolutely dangerous to get up on a chair to set air conditioning or heat. My 65 year old husband has bad knees and hips. This is completely unacceptable and I’m sure American Disabilities Association would not approve.
