The bathrooms are located at the Gazebo entrance. It can use a wheelchair techincally, but not great on pea gravel, and its rough and hilly, so not really if you can't roll the track. The signs are contradicting. Is there boats or kyak allowed? Is it ran by town or DWR, etc. No numbers to call about extra fees that are mentioned on FB for the town price. It was even more confusing, even AI couldn't make sense of the sign situation either. Locals were asked and got 3 answers, "don't worry about it, yes, and no"... so no clue on which signs are current and accurate and who to call. (Not just boating signs btw). Catch and release either way. Great spot for to take family for fun day of fishing. It does need more police patrol on weekdays after-school and right before.

My doggies love going down to walk the trails around the oxbow in St. Paul, usually stays pretty clean but trails are not marked well, in my opinion. There is always room for improvement, but it is a nice evening...
