Nice little park with more then expected

The campground is tiny but there are showers, bathrooms and water readily available and I think it is a lightly used park. Good trails, nice exhibits and a surprising amount of wildlife. The river was very high and overall very wet summer so far but green.

Small park and campground

This park and campground are both pretty small but still a great stay! I was here early in the season...a lot of the trails had flooding. The hiking club trail was particularly bad as a good portion was at least ankle deep. My dog had to be carried so I wasn't able to get pictures of that 🤣

Worth checking out; bring bug spray

Nice little campgrounds. Our favorite part was checking out the Old Mill & settler’s cabin. Unfortunately, the bridge & swimming pond were closed. Electric & water hook ups on the inner loop. LOTS of mosquitos when we visited - bring bug spray & extra bug spray! Great little self serve firewood spot in the campsite. Kept clean. Trails were neat, but we spent minimal time on them due to the bugs. Playground is a swing set.

Great beach

No electricity, restrooms are very basic. Camping has limited capacity but they do keep them very clean.

Fab HC Trail in July!

Park is on the smaller side compared to other state parks but was great with a very nice beach. Scenic prairie trail with tons of wild life to watch like butterflies, frogs, chipmunks, grasshoppers, and caterpillars. Wild Raspberries grow along the trail as well.

Nice area and historical

This was a really cool park to go to, there’s a couple historical building for those interested in history and mills. Many trails to walk on and there’s a beach area for those who like to swim. Campsites are nicely spread out and everyone is friendly.

A Park with Quiet Beauty

While this park isn't a take your breath away experience, it is a solid park for hiking and solitude. We went in fall so we didn't get to enjoy but there was a beautiful sand beach to swim at that would be perfect in the summer time.
