Lake Access
Best places to access the lake
We love that there are shallow areas for children as well as deep areas to wade and swim in. The swimming area is also designated so it’s safe from boats. You also can’t beat the views and the hikes are wonderful!
There is also a boat ramp so you can laugh your boat.

It’s a quiet spot to take your boat or kayak out on. There is a “beach” to the left but beach access depends on the tide and water levels.

Hiking
Best places to hike
We love the shaded trails at the park. Most trails are easy for young children. There is also a concrete path along the lake that is worth the exercise during sunset!
