Always such an amazing place to come with your entire family. I love that we can bring our own food, drinks & lawn furniture with. It's very easy to spend 7 or 9 hours out here. The water is usually clean which is great. (River water) They only have a few dumpsters out by the entrance However. They have several trash bag stands throughout the park. U just grab a few bags for free and take your trash to dumpsters on your way out. I love this idea. There is also a great Frisbee Golf course out here. My Son has used it a lot. They rave about it. They have a few stands along the beach that houses a number of life preservers to borrow for the day. I absolutely love this idea as well. There are NO life guards on duty. However, The main beach area is roped off. With a bright yellow "Line" as the kids call it. It's a floatable & stationary booey that "fences in the water with the beach front as the 4th wall. U can se past the "Yellow line" But the water is deeper and more so used for paddle boards, floaties & experienced swimmers. Some of my pictures have this "Yellow line" in it for references. There is a playground in the middle of the park. The playground is conveniently located between the beach & the water slide/Public bathrooms. PLEASE BE AWARE. ⚠️ 🔥 ⚠️ 🔥 ⚠️ The playground equipment can get DANGEROUSLY HOT. I've burnt my hand on the slide by simply checking for the temperature. 🔥 There is also a single waterside that is always super fun. I can't be positive on the pricing. I believe last summer it was $12.⁰⁰ for a wristband that has a total of 10 rides. U just pull off a single square & hand it thethe lifeguard when u get to the top Of the slide. U CAN also share the wristbands/squares. I believe that u can also buy individual ride tickets (Square) They also have picnic tables throughout the park in the grass area. It's unlikely to find one available, especially if you don't get there early. Dogs are welcome as long as they stay on a leash. There are NO dogs allowed on the beach area OR the water though. They have a small store inside the park located between the Playground & the bathrooms. I haven't been in the store for years but it appears that they sell floaties. Not sure what else they sell. There is also a Snow cone stand behind the store which is in front of the water slide entrance. Be prepared to wait for 15 minutes. Its always super busy. 😉 They used to have a burger stand where the "store" is. But they closed that years ago. I'm quite surprised that they haven't reopened the food stand or a hotdog "Hot dog cart" It'd be a lucrative business opportunity. U are welcome to bring in coolers, foods & bevvys. We bring our own small portable grill in with us to bbq. Its always pretty packed on weekends. IF u haven't been to Eagle Island state park, I highly recommend that u come. There are also several stationary bbq's throughout the park 4 those who chose to not bring one in. (BYO CHARCOAL) They also have an "Air pump area" where u can pay to fill all of your floaties/paddle boards etc. I have NO idea what it costs to use the air pump. I'll assume that its used with quarters. There isn't anywhere where u can make change for quarters, So if u are planning to use the air pump, byo change. There is also a convenient store about 2 minutes outside of the entrance. Once u pay for your "car load" u are free to to exit & re:enter for that entire day. I believe the price went up to $7.⁰⁰ a day per car. ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT! This is such an amazing place to spend family fun time. Have a blast. Bring sunblock! 🌞

Very nice State Park. Located in a residential area, hidden very nicely it was quite a find. It offers, a sectioned off area for swimming, sandy beach, picnic areas with BBQs, large covered picnic areas with large BBQs that take reservations, bathrooms, grassy area, Frisbee Golf, walking paths around the lake and horse trails (which I haven't been on). No over night parking at this time, I was told it's in the making just not available yet. When we visited, it was a very hot day so very crowded. We walked down the trail away from the swimming and fished. We caught and released 2 small mouth bass and a bluegill. Not sure what other fish are in the man made lake. The park offers a "slushy" type stand, but that's all.

Nice area to relax and play and let the kids be kids. Free life jackets for public use. Which was great because we forgot 2. There's an enclosure around the swimming area to keep your littles contained. The bathrooms were closed so only had portable bathrooms/outhouses. That was a bummer. Slide is 1 dollar a ride or you can buy a 10 punch pass to share for 8. Day passes also available. Snow Cone shack was amazing and ranged from 3.75 to 5.75 each. Both the slide and snow cone place take card or cash. We saw lots of fish. Shade and big trees and tables throughout. We have a parks pass built in with our car registration so visiting is a breeze.

My family lives this place. Great beach area for the kids to play in and the area that's roped off for swimming is shallow enough for my 7 year old to go out into with the water level not passing her neck. They have a playground and lots of concessions as well as a giant slide ($1 a ride), but honestly we spend all of our time in the water. There are trails all around the island for horseback riding and they have a nice Frisbee golf course, just be careful as its full of water hazards (not a beginners course). In the hot summer, expect lots of company...it may be a hidden gem to many but the locals know about it!!
