Love the cabins and the park. But the fishing flat out sucks. For the past few years, the ponds have become overrun with pan fish. The fish have become bait shy due to all the fishing.

I wanted cabins, fishing, campfire and a nice view for my bachelorette party and that was exactly what I got! I loved that the cabins where tucked away in a cove of trees so we where more secluded from everyone else and it had its own pond to fish out of and watch the wild life. I can’t get over how clean the water was in the bigger lake. Didn’t catch any fish but will definitely come back and try again. It was worth the 4 hour drive.

Great trails, nice and wide, well kept and easy to navigate. Those are some of the best things that this Park has to offer. Along with fishing, birding, and camping, you can spend a few hours or days just getting away from it all. This is a sanctuary for all of those who like to keep it simple. Where you're from or who you are doesn't matter here. It's nestled in between farmland so in some cases you may see a cow or two. You can get your fix whether it's a picnic or whatever you want. As always be respectful and remember to keep this the way you want it to be when you come back.

Wilson Lake Park provided a nice afternoon for fishing. The lake had an abundance of large blue gill and sun fish. There were also several small to medium sized trout along the shores. There is a nice campground. Also, the park was well cared for and there was no tall grass around the lake. We fished from several spots along the shoreline and caught 5 fairly large sun fish and blue gill. We also caught one six inch trout. All were released back into the lake. The day provided a great opportunity to get outside and enjoy the nice scenery provided by the tree around the lake shore. Our furry friend enjoyed laying under a couple of trees along the shore as well. If you want to beat the heat and try your hand at fishing, I recommend Wilson Lake Park. It is easy to get to and has a lot of outdoor space to enjoy!
