Pros
- A gigantic park in a pretty spot by the lake.
- Rent paddle boats, row boats and canoes in the summer.
- Two playgrounds, a water spray playground, a beach area, large grassy areas to kick a ball around in, a ton of picnic tables, plus a concession stand in high season.
Cons
- It’s a popular spot.
- $5/car entrance fee.
- Technically under fives are not supposed to go paddling in the lake; either for the lake’s safety or theirs. This does not seem to be enforced.
- The Yelpers report mosquitios and bees… I haven’t been there at the wrong times myself, but just in case bring DEET and your epipen if necessary :-O
