we went ice fishing this year with friends and grandson and he caught one great fun

The most spacious campsites, clean beach and lake. Raised my kids going there almst every week , hiking, canoeing, walking, camping and swimming. from 1980-2002.

This is a state park, and is a nice quiet relaxing place to spend the day. It's fresh water swimming, and kept clean. Nice place to bring the family and spend the day.

Gorgeous views and perfect hiking trails for young kids. Not too strenuous, but offers some exercise. Lake and camping there too.
