    Had an extremely rude experience here with one of the employees. Came here to fish with my dog, and one of the wardens or employees said "the dog is fine right now, but don't bring him again, we don't allow that kind" My dog is properly trained and was sitting down through the whole exchange of words. He further explained the water is the "source of drinking water in the raw stage", yet they allow boats? Not sure what his deal was but I won't be returning here and God forbid you have a Pitbull that behaves well.

    Beautiful area to come and do some fishing, ride a bike or just hang out with the family and have a picnic. The water is pretty nice and there’s plenty of fantastic scenery.

    This place offers fantastic prices for full day boat rentals (especially considering we're in SD). The lake is large and peaceful, but not many fish out biting when we've visited (we saw some larger ~12") fish, but they weren't hungry. The staff at front office and at the docks are friendly and helpful. This spot is a hidden treasure of SD

    Fished here for 2 hours with my kids. Used real bait and all that good stuff. We didn't catch anything. As we were packing up to leave a man came with his kid. In the 15 minutes it took us to pack up he caught 2 fish.. using hotdogs... its a nice spot to fish! I'll be bringing hot dogs next time! Hah!

    My wife and kid come here often and everything is great. Beautiful lake, well maintained park and grounds. However, this last visit it seems staff decided to close early since they were slow early in the day. Rather than closing at the usual 6pm they closed at around 0100 pm. I had invited my inlaws for a boat ride but couldn't rent anything since there was nobody in the concessions or the boat house. The boat house was left completely open and a pontoon or deluxe boat was missing. Later a gentleman got close in the missing pontoon that was "checked out" and said the concession stand closed early. A week of planning had gone down the drain since I had an understanding the boats are first come first serve. Otherwise I would have made reservations... I'm preserving 4 Stars because I genuinely love the place but this one time I finally made major plans and brought out a large group I felt really let down, especially given they're only open 3 days a week...

    Food was not that warm. People didn't seem like they really knew what they were doing. Not that happy. Wasn't terrible but it wasn't great

    My elderly dad and I decides to go fishing something we have not done since I was 9 years old. I have called this place no answer for the last 5 business days yes even weds and Saturday. So since no one answered I went off what the website informed us. I bought a one day license for both of us just to come today and find out that they're closed 2nd Wednesday of the month which was not on their website!

    Beautiful views! We spent most of our time at the park at the end of Wueste Rd. It was filling up and getting crowded as people prepared for parties. It was a Saturday, so we expected that. Because of the parties, all the shade structures were taken, so I recommend bringing your own shade.

  • 5/5 Kim H. 3 years ago on Google
    Easy access trails, lovely views across the lake, ample fishing access, and great kayaking. Have also grilled here a few times - there are several grills and tables spaced out near the bait shop. Plenty of Porta Potties and a clean restroom available for all-day visits.

    Been here for about 3-4 hours and No one's here! Tried making my dad's birthday a little special but apparently all workers left super early. It's my dad's birthday, on a family Sunday got here really early to get the biggest boat they have and they all left... it's 3pm right now. Honestly I'm a little disappointed. THANK YOU for answering the phone btw, been calling for a loooonggg time.🫤
