What campers say

This spacious state park along the South Shore offers wide fields, trails, multiple playgrounds, picnic areas, sports courts, and beach access ideal for walking, biking, sunsets, and family outings. Wildlife sightings (deer, turkeys, waterfowl) are common, so keep dogs leashed in shared areas. Facilities include large parking areas, restrooms, trash bins, and seasonal cottage rentals; staff presence and helpful attendants are noted. The shoreline is pebbly with limited sand, and mosquitoes can be an issue in warmer months. Overall a well‑maintained, versatile park for outdoor recreation and relaxed evening visits.
