nice place for nature walks, clean,safe places for a picnic and fishing. more on Yahoo! Travel

There are 2 playgrounds, VERY clean facilities, numerous camper slots, A beautiful lake to fish or take a boat ride in, and lastly, WE LOVE TO GO DEERSPOTTING at night. more on Yahoo! Travel

There are some cozy cabins available for rental in the park, but the starting price is over $70 a night-not bad, however, if you have a decent size group. more on Epinions.com

My wife and I make a half dozen day trips a year to this park and we always come back well rested and refreshed, ready to tackle the rat race again. more on Epinions.com

Later in life, the park served as a great place to throw a lunch together and take the family out, just to enjoy the sites, feed the wildlife or take in the sights of other families enjoying our'second home'... campfires, sing alongs, roasted marshmallows, duck sounds at night... it was a heavenly place to grow up. more on Epinions.com
