While on shore, hike through woodlands and glades and watch for lake views from atop the towering bluffs. This sprawling state park offers 240 campsites spread across two large camping areas, each offering a unique experience. Cabin, glamping yurt, lakehouse rentals are also available.

While weekends in spring and fall may be a little busier, you’ll still be likely to find a relaxed experience.

A full-service marina is located onsite, offering boat rentals, watersport supplies, and a camp store.
