Great place to visit and swim. Rude office staff recently at the Recreation area phones though. Don’t know what’s happening over there but on 2 separate events this summer this has occurred. Since they swimming area has been closed 2 out of the 4 previous visits this year; I simply wanted to find out ahead of time if swimming was open before packing up 3 kids under 10 yrs old for this particular excursion. Both times (previous call and today’s call) the staff was verbally short and had attitudes like they were being bothered for even being asked. I understand the reasons for being closed but the attitudes are unwarranted, just because you aren’t talking to someone in person doesn’t mean you should care less about the conversation.

Beautiful area to enjoy a picnic, or go for a hike or cool off in the tranquil lake with a swim.

Used to be nice till it got over crowded and you have to pay for parking. Even though water is contaminated as signs are up, they still let people swim. However, you can't swim when it's packed now and they pee in the water. Lifeguard busy flirting while a kid was drowning years back, had to save her. Very buggy there, not worth going anymore.
