👍 First time visiting this quaint, little park and already want to go back. At first, it seems like it's a pretty small park with not much to explore, but then you climb down to the beach/marsh area and you have SO much beautiful scenery around you. Would definitely reccommend visitng 👍

Shady Point Beach & Campground

Campground

🫤 Too expensive. They should charge per car, not per person like every other lakes.. Update- 2022 The price now is $20 per person. I feel bad for a big family trying to bring their kids, the amount of money they have to pay to go to this lake. I enjoy Lake Dennison better than this place.
