Bread is available for purchase on-site, making it easy to join in the fun. The walking path has plenty of benches along the way, so you can sit, relax, and enjoy the scenery while watching the fish. It's a simple, affordable outing that's perfect for families with young children.

There are bathroom facilities here, along with playground equipment. I would have liked it if the port-a-johns located here had some kind of hand sanitizer available in this time of Corona19, but there was none. This beach has a parking lot, and a boat launch also. My favorite thing about this beach is it also has picnic tables so you can sit down and watch the boats coming and going while you eat your lunch from a local eatery (within walking distance), such as Kettle Lake Kitchen . . . (see additional review for their excellent food). Another really cool thing here, is the Purple Martin birdhouses, which are located high above the beach, but not so high that you cannot see (and hear) the birds. There is informational signage also, which is very educational and teaches about the life cycle of the Purple Martins. I also just like seeing the flagpole here, with the flags flapping in the wind, and the metal clasps lightly clinking as the flags flap and blow. This beach is very nautical, and cool . . . CHEERS! P.S. I believe you have to pay to use the parking / facilities here on weekends, but it is free on weekdays. I have only been here during the week, and I have never seen anyone in the booth collecting an admission fee, but there are prices listed on the booth.

Colonel Crawford Park or Woodcock Creek Lake as it is more commonly called, is a great place during…read morea normal year, but unfortunately in early March of 2021, there has been a malfunction in the dam water control system, and the entire lake has unfortunately been drained. I stopped to visit yesterday to see it for myself, and everywhere that once was water is now just mud and ice. Surprisingly, there was still water coming out of the outflow on the back side of the dam, my guess was ice meltoff. I feel bad about all the fish and other aquatic wildlife that have perished due to this predicament. I imagine it will take months, if not a year or more, for the water levels to get back to normal . . . sigh. On a good note, the park was packed with people to try and get a look at the empty lake, but I imagine these crowds won't last, and this will do harm to the local businesses that provide services to all the visitors during the year (especially bad for those that already lost business during the pandemic). Hoping for better days . . . .

If you're looking for a classy, peaceful nature outing turn back now. But if you want to witness an…read moreabsolutely chaotic aquatic circus fueled by stale carbs and bad decisions, welcome to the Pymatuning Spillway. First of all, BYOB here doesn't mean Bring Your Own Booze. Bring Your Own Bread. White bread. Wheat bread. That one bun that's been in your freezer since 2019. Heck, I saw a guy chucking chunks of fruitcake like he was loading a t-shirt cannon. The fish don't care. The ducks don't care. You might care... until the feeding frenzy begins. The moment the bread hits the water, it's like Shark Week met a Black Friday sale at Walmart. Giant carp--literal underwater linebackers--erupt from the depths like they haven't seen a carb since the Reagan administration. And on top of that? Ducks just walking on them. Not swimming. Not paddling. Walking. On. The. Fish. Like Jesus on water if He were a mallard with zero manners. Kids scream. Parents laugh. One guy had a bag of Wonder Bread in a baby carrier like it was an heirloom. I'm pretty sure a seagull mugged someone for a slice of rye. There's no such thing as dignity here--just breadcrumbs and mayhem. Pro Tips: * Don't wear nice shoes. The bread goo gets everywhere. * Hold your bread tight unless you want to be mugged by a gang of pigeons with nothing to lose. * Bring extra, because once you start--you won't want to stop. It's that addictive. The Pymatuning Spillway is a beautiful mess. A masterpiece of Midwest chaos. A place where nature, gluttony, and old bakery products collide. 10/10, will return with Costco-sized loaves.

Sadly, I won't be returning to be insulted again.
