Lovely and easy place to launch kayaks for heading up the river. You can paddle all the way to the Falls in the quiet of the day with birds all around. Today my husband counted nearly 40 Great White Egret and several Blue Heron along with several other kinds. It's a beautiful park and area!
Quiet and beautiful. There are clean but basic bathrooms, one being a porta potty in the area of campsites 4-9. Those campsites are also very close together and limited parking. There are no real hiking trails but you can walk along the shoreline and around the park on the roads. It is also a good way off from shopping aside from a gas station a few miles away.
We camped at site 2 on a Sunday and had the entire area to ourselves. We loved exploring the beach area in front of our campsite. We also paddled around the other sites and explored some small islands. I recommend water shoes as there was glass at our campsite and zebra mussels in the water. The only other downside was 1000's of flies and it was hard to get stakes in the ground for our tent. These were the only reasons I didn't give it 5 stars. We also didn't see the bathroom so can't review that. Pros: Easy water access, lots for kids to explore, great bird and deer watching, perfect calm water for paddle boards/kayaker, shade. And just plain beautiful. Cons: Flies, glass, and hard rock for staking. Side note: When we arrived a nice family was in our original camp site 3 but we gladly moved to #2. Park host was wonderful about it and then left us alone which I prefer. We will be back very soon!!
This is an amazing place. It appears to be mostly a campground but you can also use it for day trips to hike, relax in or by the water, enjoy nature and generally soak up some peace and quiet.
Great get away spot; always quiet... I rarely see people here. Good spot for fishing (NOT swimming); with the recent spring rains Buchanan levels went up a bit; so as of late May there's a LOT of debris at the shoreline (mainly logs); so it's hard to find a good fishing spot... I love this place; very chill, the water here is much more stained (kinda mocha colored) due to being so close to where the river flows into the lake. $5 a person for entrance
