This park is a really nice place to unwind and get into nature again. The camp sites are clean and well spaced for both privacy and comfort. The eating area is huge, very clean, and features a sink. There are showers and flushable toilets, as well as your typical out house type bathrooms in between camp sites. I really can’t stress enough how clean everything is! There are also canoes and kayak rentals for folks who want to head out on the water, and an abundance of picnic tables with grilling areas. The best part is it’s quiet. Everyone seems to respect the quiet hours, but generally it’s a very chill and relaxing place.

Beautiful state park with spacious sites. Sites with electricity and water are few so book early! Two nice hiking trails right off the camp ground. Friendly staff with detailed info on the park and surroundings. First picture is north peak, second south. One drawback for RVers: no dump station. Supposedly in the works, but for now RVers need to hold their tanks!

Nice, accessible park - there are stairs down to the lake. We did not use the trails, but the lake is nice.

Loved the hike at this park. Cost was very reasonable, $4.00 per adult for a non resident. We took the rangers recommendation and went up the notch trail to get to the south peak since the trail to the south peak is very steep. Once visiting the south peak we headed to the north peak. It is definitely steep coming down the north peak trail but definitely doable. All in all we liked the view from the south peak the best. Overall a really great hike and beautiful location!
