The sand-bottom swimming pond, picnic area, campgrounds & group center attract many visitors every summer to this very popular state park. The terrain is diverse, offering views of wooded river bottoms, oxbow marshes & open grasslands. Hikers & cross-country skiers enjoy the flat trails on the bottom of the valley or more challenging routes on the oak-shaded bluffs.
