    I enjoy walking and biking through this park. It has lake access, a dock, nearby soccer field and mountain biking, and even live bands on Wednesday nights. You can relax under several covered gazebos and has a decent playground.

    It was cloudy and a bit chilly, my perfect type of weather, and we had a blast catching a few sunnies and baby bass. All kids were wearing a life vest (we put them on after taking the picture), and it allowed us to have an even more enjoyable experience. People fishing at the dock with us were very friendly. The water was so so clear!!

    Great park for kids or for boating. There may have been trails as well but I didn't check to see. There's a gazebo with picnic tables seating and several benches around the park.

    Very nice park, we had a company party there and the facilities were nice and lots of parking as well as a nice playground for the kids

    Beautiful park and very nice lake. The park was clean. It's really a really nice place to spend a nice day like yesterday.

    New bandshell is super nice and a great place to watch some local music at the park!

    They have redesigned the boat launch. It looks like one ramp is still to be replaced. The new design will be interesting as they look to be about 15 feet shorter than the existing ones were, and with less pitch. May have trouble loading and unloading the boat now. Looks like a government design. Dumb!

    My good friend had his son's graduation party there. Was a perfect evening weather wise. Plenty of space and hey if boating is your thing you are right there to put the boat in

    Great little access to the lake and a play area to boot. The fishing is pretty good, I caught a few Pike

    I fish here often and usually have good luck. I'm excited to see the improvements to the boat ramps next spring.

    I saved a frog who looked like he got attacked by either a bird or got hit by a car not sure if he lived or not I didn't put a tracker on him but hopefully I made him live another Day! The wildlife is great! Nice place to clear your head and become closer to nature! Boat launch is a good setup and people are pretty quick about getting in and out of there. There's two sides to the boat launch which is nice and docks that are off to the side in case you need to wait for your hubby to park the truck! The sunrise is absolutely beautiful almost every morning!

    The main launch is under construction right now but it’s going to be 2 lanes wide and will be great

    August 2022 - Very happy to see some improvements in progress here! We come here a lot but over the last couple years, the playground and picnic areas had become a little run down. The parking lot is almost redone now and there is a new structure with a stage near the playground area!

    Nice for a brief stroll along the river.

    Nice park with toddler area and older kids area to play. Not much for shade on the actual playground. There is a trail off the park for the kids to play and hike. Right next to the lake, so you can walk down to the water or the fishing dock. A picnic shelter is just down the path. Parking is close to the play structures for easy access. As of 8/23/21 there is some construction near the park where it looks like they are expanding the park area. It isn’t disruptive to the kids or noisy, but when you drive up to the playground it almost looks like it is under construction.

    Clean area, with a nice park, covered shelter with picnic tables and bathrooms. A bike course, walking trails and a boat launch all in one place.

  • 4/5 Rebekah D. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely park. Walked the trail. Mountain biking looked good and they are building a bandshell. Gonna be a wonderful gathering place once the construction is cleaned up.

    Very fun for my 3 & 9 year old to play at. Being able to have a short & paved walk over to the boat launch was an added bonus for the kids to go look for fish. There was also a bike course which I didn't know about, so we will be going back to try that out!
