If you truly want to disconnect, this place to go. Beautiful lake and surroundings. You can rent kayak/paddle boats, etc, from the boat house. Heather and her husband, who runs it, is amazing and kind and helpful. The facilities in th camp ground are well maintained and clean.

Absolutely amazing experience! We stayed two nights and had a great time. We did not have a reservation but we're lucky to get a couple fcfs sites right on the lake. The lake was beautiful to kayak in and fish. They have kayak rentals, and a little shop with ice and some basic grocery needs. They also have a great beach area for the kids to play with bathrooms and rinse shower stations. Campground was very clean and quiet, bath house was very clean and water stations were spaced closest between every couple sites. We saw deer and wild rabbits during our stay. There are a few hiking trails that circle the lake also. Much to do here! We will definitely be back to enjoy this park again.

Hidden gem of a state park with easy mountain biking trails, kayak rentals, camping, day use area, and a beach. Small fee to enter. Totally worth it.

We were very lucky to get to camp here on Saturday of labor day weekend. It was one of the best weekends we've had in a long time. Getting out on the water is a must. Anna May that works at the Kayak rental shop is very kinda and helpful. We hope to see her again next year. The pictures will explain the rest.
