I live almost 3 hours from this state park. It is well worth the day trip. You are also able to feed the fish. The park has a quarter machine to get the food. If you don't have change, they have a machine that you can put a $1, $5, or a $10 in. And it gives you all quarters. The trails are well marked and easy to hike. On a sunny day, it would be nice to have a picnic. And there is an area to camp.
