Some places are a little overgrown. Some of the trails need a little work but we have had a lot of rain come through lately. I caught what I'm pretty sure were some smaller Northern Pike. That was definitely a first for me

Visited Hematite lake, 2.2 mile hike around it. The trail has many roots it is clearly marked. We also visited the Coal Furnace. Very cool sites. The visitors center is very nice and has a gift shop and planetarium. Shows are running from 10-4pm. The center closes at 5pm.

GREAT place for a family get away!! We went to the Elk and Bison range and saw lots of bison and several turkeys and their young ones. We enjoyed an awesome movie in the planetarium about our night sky, wildlife, and constellation identification. And, then we visited the Nature Station with their Red Tail Hawk, wolves, coyote, owls, and hummingbirds. There is also a 1850's working farm and various picnic areas and numerous other outdoor activities....😊

One of the coolest parks I've ever been to. I have visited several times and each time I discover something new. Really awesome longer trails for experienced hikers as well as shorter kid friendly trails with lots of wildlife. Surrounded by water and some of the most beautiful sunset watching spots I've been to. Great fishing spots everywhere too and very dog friendly.
