This is a relatively small State Park, but one of our favorites. At first glance, you might simply see the campsites and playground. You need to go off the beaten path to discover its beauty. Bring your wood (or buy from the mini-mart), marshmallows and sticks to roast in the waterfront firepit. Or take a walk down the south side and enjoy the peace and tranquility. Let the kids discover the giant felled tree trunk that doubles as a slide. Skip rocks. Sit on the logs and soak in the silence. Or walk northward to what our son has dubbed "Bird Island." It's actually a sandbar of sorts, but a big adventure for a 9 year old. |
