The canals from Sand Lake to Long Lake are very shallow and some are filled with braided rope like seaweed that makes it very heavy to paddle through. The canals from Sand Lake to Miller Lake are much easier to paddle.

Paddle boat, kayak, canoe rentals for very reasonable prices. Small beach when you get tired of paddling around! Restrooms and parking area that isnt too bad of a walk from the water. I'd definitely recommend if you want to get away but don't want to go too far!

What a beautiful state park we have… Did the 9 Lake paddle challenge and thoroughly enjoyed the scenery. The park does a great job in keeping the environment clean and beautiful. A shout out to Carly for being gracious enough and helping us out when we locked keys in a car

I love this place. It's a beautiful park with kettle lakes connected by channels. The beach is great. Canoeing is great. The hiking is excellent, especially in the fall. The campground is great, as are the cabins. The park staff are great too.

Very fun campground. We stayed in the cabin and it was perfect for us. They also have a coffee pot which we didn't realize ahead of time. We did the park challenges to get our state park pin and look forward to getting more at other parks. But be aware there is a lot of poison ivy along the trails.

If you enjoy getting away from the busy world, you should go. I buy an all access pass every year, which allows access to many Indiana State parks, reasonably priced.

Loved it this time of year. Water was cold and most things were winding down for the winter. The old school house visit was nice, main restrooms were not open, but outhouses were readily available. Wish there were benches to rest along the walkways.

We enjoy camping here, everything is close and easy to access, bathrooms are good for a campground. The canoeing was wonderful! The only negative I'd say is that the campsites are quite close together. There's a lot of slow traffic (this makes it more risky with littles).

We loved camping here on July 18 to July 21st. Great campground, lots of sites. Be aware that some sites are packed tightly and uneven BUT we tent camp so we didn't have that issue. Our site was 349 and we loved the open grass area since we were the first site in on this loop and our gravel area was pretty level (if you were to bring a camper). Lots to do around here and loved every minute of it.
