Wonderful Beach, Partially Closed For Construction
When I visited the park I was very excited having seen some of the trails and also the lodge area. Unfortunately much of that was closed as a result of improvement projects, sadly limiting some of the things which were accessible to me upon my visit. I instead settled into a campsite and checked out the beach area.
The campsites were pretty close together in most loops and because it is a very popular lake, it was a bit loud for my liking still I had shade a picnic table, fire ring and some basic amenities. The restrooms were in decent shape but a bit outdated, a part of the improvement project is to create better facilities throughout the many loops also.
I enjoyed the sites which were a bit further from the waterfront itself because they seem to have less noise from trucks with loud pipes.
The beachfront was vast and amazing I could easily say this was what made it worth the trip. You could walk the beach, get in the water or enjoy a picnic through one of the shaded areas. A couple of small trails were accessible however because many were not these were very crowded also. In addition the nature center was currently closed.
I would like to return to this site after renovations are complete and give it another shot. It had all the makings of being able to be a really nice place to stay and enjoy lake activities.
