Great state park. Super friendly staff and Rangers. We met Ranger Adam and he was so cool to chat with. The staff at the Nature Center and general stores were so friendly. Can't say enough. The guys who work at the concession store and boat ramp were super helpful. Lots of parking at the beach. 2 playgrounds near the beach; for little ones and older kids. The visitor center is at the opposite side of the road to the East side entrance and there is also a West side entrance. If you have little ones, I would recommend if you are hiking with them to plan on hiking Carrick Creek...Easy/Moderate that an older toddler 4/5+ can do. We camped in a tent in loop B. Would recommend if you are camping in a tent to have a little padding for the base of your tent. We also tried the paddle boat and that was easy for us to do. Hoping to try kayaking next time. I liked that all hikers had to register at the Nature Center. Highly recommended.
