Camped there Labor Day Weekend 2025. We had a blast, the park is always clean and the staff are super friendly and helpful. Love having this place so close to home.

We spent a beautiful day walking around Lake Malone. I rated it three stars because the public swimming area and mini beach were disappointing. There was a strong smell of marijuana, and people were actually smoking it there despite the presence of many children. I found that completely disrespectful, and it made me feel uneasy, so we decided to leave. If I was leaving a review for the public beach/swim area I would have gave it one star for easy access.

Lake Malone State Park is a wonderful scenic adventure full of whimsy and delight around every corner. Frankie loved meeting all of his new friends. Too bad they didn't have any people sized marshmallows. There is a note: if you do decide to do the walking trail between the statues I would suggest you go with a buddy for safety. There's some parts of it that they have chalked out and it's a little bit treacherous. However there's a lovely playground and giant fields to play in and the Forest trail is gorgeous even though the longer stint of it is a little bit rough.

I often get on Google Maps and find places to take my 6 yr old. We love to be outside exploring! Hiking, waterfalls, lakes and park are what we love! We really enjoyed lake Malone the hiking trails were very nice, the walk down to the water wasn't to far (from the parking lot if a far walk isn't for you) my sons favorite was finding the Twigs around the park!
