Very peaceful, dark, and quiet at night when campers' dogs aren't barking. Low traffic, no thru traffic, just campers speeding. Campsites were not full on 4th of july weekend, plenty of quiet space but heard fireworks from outside of the park. Trails are soft sand. Fishing is difficult, there isnt much space, alot of lilypads, shallow, clear water. Bass caught july 2025.

Beautiful park. Plenty to do for a couple days of camping, trails, swimming, or just hanging out.

Great place for a fun day of exploring and getting the kids out of the house! Plenty of trails, wide open spaces, and a beautiful lake. The kids loved running around, spotting wildlife, and just being outdoors. Perfect spot for a family picnic and some fresh air away from screens. We’ll definitely be back! Special mention of Debbie, she was really helpful and kind.

The hiking trails are fairly flat and good for beginners as well as advanced hikers. The lake has a section roped off for swimmers, and was mostly clear of algae. Cabins are close together, more so than expected. The cabin was well maintained and had functional items to use. I would return for another visit.

Spent a couple of days exploring this state park. While it doesn’t have all the amenities of some campgrounds it was a nice little retreat. The camping spot we were in had plenty of space, shade and the power and water were in good shape. Bathhouse and other facilities were in good shape as well. This is a large natural park so prepare for long walks and bring a zoom lens for you camera to get better shots of the deer and birds in the area.
