We didn't do good at all over here. We only caught one catfish. But for us just to get away we had a nice time again. I was able to let my husband fish and I sat back and read a book. But there was one part of this state park that I was able to see a few young fawns. And he or she was so beautiful. I dared not to get closer for a fear of seeing the doe somewhere close. I wish the state of California would get it together we have state parks that need to be cleaned. Just dead trees everywhere that needs to be cleaned up.

Anywho, the dude and I come here before the Pandemic and I can tell you that traffic definitely increased when the pandemic occurred as we would not see many people. Anywho, the first time I came to this park which is just across the street from our living quarters. The first time Clovis PD was there removing the homeless camps. Behind Letterman park there is a beautiful canal that has a princess path to get to it and this is where we saw duck couples and followed the same duck couple until they had babies of their own and started to feed their family. The park has a skate park attached to it, grassy areas, play structures and seating. Over the 5 or 6 months we have been frequenting this park we have seen which the pandemic came through and they had to shut down the park by putting caution tap all around. We seen people camp out here, do exercise classes and homeless roaming which he didn't see a lot of that before the pandemic. We walk out there all hours of the day and night. We bring flash lights as it gets pretty dark. We have met a lot of amazing people like a woman for the past 17 years will come out and feed abandoned domestic cats which there are about 10 of them. A really cool homeless dude that gives us updates on our duck babies and action going on. Teens out late probably up to no good. Met a father of three who was a cool dude who was laid off due the pandemic and his kiddos were so adorable! We see Clovis PD in back of the park all the time! So this park gets A LOT of action. However since it's so close we come here A LOT and will continue to do pandemic or not!

We arrived to an empty playground, which for me is fine because we have it all to ourselves. It was…read moreclean and great rock wall and slides and stuff foe the kiddo, there was a screw that was coming off the actual structure so that probably needs to be fixed, but otherwise it was nice. A great green grassy area was there with huge trees for shade that was great to run around in and little stands to watch the skateboarders although we just climbed up and down them. Overall I would come back, we stayed on our end of the park as the other seemed to have some homeless people at the picnic benches, they seemed harmless, but I don't want to risk anything happening so we stayed on our end. There was a trail too along the canal there with a fence which was nice as you don't want the kids to run into it or fall in.

But it still had beautiful views. The food exceeded my expectations, and I can't believe I did NOT take pictures of the food! Plenty of food options, at reasonable prices. Options to stay at dorms, cabins, cottages, hotels, campgrounds, etc. Atmosphere - 365 acres!! Beautiful views. Rifle, archery, ax throwing, basketball, pickleball, ping pong, corn hole, fire pits, 4x4 jeep tours, etc. Not much fish, but again maybe because they had to lower the lake to work on the bridge. Service - Great customer service. Most local kids from Joshua School were working. Approximately 114 employees. Price - See website, but overall I felt it was very reasonable.

It's Sunday we arrived at 2pm, parking is free as well as admission! My husband asked if I had quarters he said he remembered you can buy the fish food with quarters! To our surprise the feed was free! It was in a closed wooden container. They have signage of asking people to only take a handful as a courtesy to others. There's also other signs that say to not touch the water or fishes and not to feed the little fishes. My family and I had a great time the kids LOVED seeing the fish eat as they fed them and quite relaxing watching them swim. We were there for about 30mins. They had a Hatchery Building and it showed the baby fishes. They have educational boards you can read about the fishes and habitat. Restrooms open but the women's sink wasn't working at that time and no soap. Overall for a free experience it was great! Will recommend and would come back!

It's not too hard, I would rate it moderate, but you should be in decent shape to attempt this hike. It is all uphill, it's moderate uphill. The last section right before you get to the peak is more of an intense uphill climb. The intense part doesn't last too long though. This hike offers beautiful views of the lake and Table mountains. Hiking the peak can be a bit tricky. Rocks are slippery, so wear good shoes with grip and ankle protection. This hike is unbearable in the summer, it's too hot. Winter months and early spring are my fave times to hike it. Parking is free if you park along the road. If you park in the parking lot day use area, I think it's $5. There is a public restroom, sometimes it's closed and a portopotty is available.
