Great Lake / state park for camping and fishing. Water was shut off on October 17th, 2022 but the Marina campsites have water and electricity hookups all year round.
Your odds of fishing are higher if you’re on a boat but bank fishing is doable as well if you’re using surf rods and waders.
There’s a good variety of species from:
Wipers, white bass, catfish, walleye, large mouth bass, crappie, etc.
The campsites usually get reserved rather quickly, so if you see an open date, book it!
Cabins are available for reservations too.
There are two stores / bait shops at the park: one at the marina (O Brien’s) and at the west entrance of the park.
We were really surprised at how nice the park is. It’s pretty difficult to snag a camping spot on the weekend because the electric/water sites go quickly. However, there’s plenty of primitive spots. Great cell signal, too!
Had.great hiking trails. Really enjoyed these. Camped for several days. Loved it there. Will do again.
Great place so close lots of things to do. Wildlife, trails, huge lake, camping. Please come out and enjoy but pick up your trash.
Wonderful spot for a short weekend getaway. The park is well kept and lots of fun. I’ve been going here since I was a small child and still love it! I’ve enjoyed the sailing offered, water sports, boating, swimming, and lots of sunshine while making great memories with friends and family. They’ve recently built out some new additions to the park for public use, such as horseshoe pits, new playgrounds, and lots of fun yard games for kids and adults of all ages. I highly recommend this place. I love it!
