Reviews
Our daughter got married at one of the lodges. Very well maintained park. Very impressed. Made for a very pleasant day. I would post pictures, but since it was my daughter's wedding, I'll keep it private.
Stopped and bought some sandwiches and headed over to park hoping for a nice spot to picnic. We found many options, and alot of variety of covered picnic areas and restrooms. Spots next to water and place to rent paddle boats and kayaks.
A wonderful county park that has a camp ground. Two different playground areas. Paved trails for running or walking. Trails for hiking in the woods or running on. A place to rent boats. This winter they are holding a winter gnome hunt where you can try and find 10 different gnomes hiden along the horseshoe trail. The gnomes will be at this park until jan 30th before the move onto a different park for the next month.
Love to camp here! It's great park and campground!
I absolutely love this part! It has everything you need for a wonderful camping trip or day trip. It has nicely groomed and extensive hiking trails, boat rental for canoes, kayaks, and paddle boats, a shuttle up for two or four hour long canoe trips, a wonderful biking trail that goes into nearby Central City, four camping areas with everything from primitive group camps to RV camping to a variety of nicely appointed and modernized cabins at affordable prices. The campground playground is one of the best playgrounds we have ever been at with really neat and unique play features that my kids absolutely love. It also has an observation tower which I believe is the highest point in Linn County. All in all it's a great place to camp; it'll keep your kids and you entertained for days at a time and it is one of my favorite spots.
Best spot to camp at is called "C" section. It's more shade and better fishing. A is shady but fills up very fast. B is by the river but few spots to be directly by the river. Otherwise no shade trees at all. In a pinch there is a place called plains next to the dump station. It's more for tent camping but they do have a few water, electrical sites but the downside is your far away from the river and you park in grass. So to be level can be a challenge.
A beautiful & well maintained park. Our 2 year old loves the all inclusive playground & abundance of nature! We especially love the updated restrooms & hiking trails.
Very clean well maintained.
Great camp sites not on top of one another.ππππΊπΈπΊπΈ β¦
