I have yet to find an Ohio State Park that I have something bad to say about! We visited this park while in the area. It was in the early spring, so the beach area was deserted. But, it gave us a chance to walk along the trails and for my son to play Pokemon Go. There is a very nice playground and shaded picnic area that was being used by several families. The beach was nice to walk along because the lake was at its very low winter level. On the map it looked like we were walking in water! The picnic area was very well maintained. There is a short storybook trail and a very nice amphitheater. Probably one of the nicest amphitheaters I have seen in a park in awhile. There are not many trails in this side of the lake. But it does continue on towards the dam. There were plenty of folks fishing. This park is about 30 minutes from my house, so we will be back Especially to get my passport...

Also need to add the park officers are amazing and kind people. They watch over all the citizens rather regulars or visitors. Good job to...

Its starts shallow and slowly increases to maybe 6 ft... bring a grill, use theirs, picnic tables are numerous and you can lounge on your tubes rafts or walk down and do a little fishing. Theres a little snack shop and restrooms... in the shallows away from the swimming area there are always big fish right at the edge my kids like throwing the bread or whatever, lol they eat anything almost.
