Lake Park is an amazing park, it has lots of BBQs and great open space for picnic. A big lawn for open play and there is also a stage for local performers. They have movies in the park in the summer months there. Also, the park offers 2 huge picnic pavilions, 1 smaller one (about 60 people), a children’s playground, volleyball fields with sand! And you can rent a paddle boat or a kayak to get into the Lake Opeka during the summer! And let’s not forget the Fall Fest held in September - it’s great time with lots of rides and activities for children of all ages!

Beautiful park, it has a man-made where you can fish, kayak and paddle boat. It also has a playground golf course, a concert Pavilion and a picnic area Great place to take a walk and watch the ducks and geese swim on the lake.

Fun place to launch and spend a few hours floating. Tend to also take model boats to run and never had any issues.

Only downside is they charge $10 to launch. On the plus side, it seems to be for the whole day, so all in all...
