We enjoyed a lovely Easter holiday at the forestry. It's a beautiful area with several lakes perfect for fishing.

A nice park to go to. Looks like good family and group fun. for day activities. at entry it looks like for basketball, kickball, baseball & softball, family and friend daytime picnic areas throughout, fishing, and nature trails. Camping area was ideal for out of the way weekend camping with rest rooms. winding paved road although steep and narrow at times that goes to the tower. unfortunately tower was closed although drive was adventurous and scenic. picturesque and real nature. pleasant.

Really like the forestry.. beautiful scenery and usually peaceful. Nice trails to walk and if you don't have any idea what to do one day that won't cost all your money, this is a good place to go. I also wish I could give five stars to the Amish family that sells pumpkins right by there. We go there every year and their selection is crazy good and so cheap!

Nice area in henryville,IN. There is picnicking, kayaking, fishing, boating, shooting range, you can hunt there, playground, grills, several shelter houses, a fire tower. I'm probably missing a few things and this gem of a spot has no entry fee either.
