Every year on the Fourth of July weekend or near it, I rent a pontoon out on the lake! It's always…read morea good time. And my friends and I just divide the costs and it's always worth the cost. I will say, this year, I miscounted how many people I had on the lake-- you can only have 10 people per boat depending on the boat. We got a super standard! Well, I was planning for this boat trip- I forgot to include myself. Some guy working made a comment and said someone has to go home because I have 11 people and didn't provide solutions. He scolded me for not paying attention. However, we had two people rent our a dingy which in hindsight- if he would've mentioned that then they would make more money-- instead of scolding my group for having ONE extra person. Also! Book ahead when getting a boat! They fill up fast and when I called about the weather looking like it might lightening and thundering-- they were not concerned and said I could reschedule but they don't have many weekends. I'd suggest they be more willing work with people on weather and to remind people on protocols such as 10 people and offering solutions.

There are plenty of spots for fishing but some of them you will need to take a short hike down a gravel road. If you bring a wagon make sure it has bigger wheels but probably best to carry everything to make it easier. There is a fishing dock as well that's pretty big and most definitely is shareable with a few groups. The hiking trail that extends around to the dam is a fun walk since it goes in and out of wooded covering. Makes it great for sunny days as well. The playground is nice and maybe small to moderate size. There are BBQ stands to use and picnic tables. There are bathrooms but not very quick to get to from most parts of the park so keep that in mind. Great place to kayak as well! Great views and since the lake is narrow it makes it feel more like a river to go through. Super fun place! Glad to see them doing more work on it Only criticism is that there is lots of trash and even though it's the patrons fault, the park could do a better job at cleaning it up. Watch your little ones so they don't pick up pokey fish hooks or broken bottles.

Tiny park located off cedar creek road. You pull into a the parking lot and the road way is gated…read moreoff. So you park to the immediate left. The park itself features a small playground, a full court basketball court and lots of soccer fields. If you follow the concrete path near the parking lot towards the patio area and soccer fields you can follow that path around a short trail that eventually takes you through a gravel paved wooded area that runs along side the soccer fields. It leads back out to the road where it circles back to the blocked off road at the entrance. It's a giant circle. But it's a peaceful and easy trail. Overall solid little park and it's pretty close to my home. So I'll come up here and let the girls play on the playground. It's very rarely crowded. Most of the crowd heads to the larger McNeely Lake Park about 3 miles down the road as it has several massive playgrounds. So a lot of time when we don't want to deal with bit crowds I'll make the short trip here and let the girls run wild and blow off energy.

A couple years later my parents upgraded to a lake house, and they come down here almost every weekend (Even in the winter!!) I try to make it out here at least a couple times a year and it's always a fun time. The lake is gigantic and absolutely beautiful to cruise on. The surrounding neighborhoods have lovely homes and friendly people. All of the facilities that I have visited at this state park have always felt clean and nice. I could easily recommend this park to anyone. It is way out in the country off of the highway, but it is well worth it for a relaxing weekend in the sun!

Great little campground not too far from Mammoth Cave national park. They have electric and…read moreprimitive camp sites. The campground is not that big, with one bathhouse and a playground. There is a dump station with 2 sites. The reservation check in has ice and fire wood, but it's hit or miss if someone is there to help you. We never even officially checked in because no one was there. We stayed on electric site #2 and it was perfectly shaded and quiet. The sites are nice and level with large spaces for games, hammocks, dogs, etc. Just outside the campground is the beach, park office and lake access for boats. The beach is small, but maintained well. We went on a 95+ degree day and the lake water felt like bath water, it was so warm. The lake was busy with a lots of boats and lots of beach goers. The park is pretty small, it mostly encompasses the lake, and there is not much around there. It take 40 min to get to the interstate and close to an hour to reach Mammoth Cave.

It was easy to get around on the paved roads on our bikes. The jumpy pillow and Gaga ball were some of the kid's favorite things. Cons: sad picnic table with a hole in the bench and a rusty screw sticking up. There was not grate on the fire pits and ours was full of nasty cigarette butts. You would think they would scoop those out for the next customer, but I guess they just want everyone to get secondhand smoke? Only 3 of the pedal cars worked out of all the ones sitting there. Overall a little pricey for what you got, but there aren't tons of options around Mammoth Cave with pools. The people at the front desk were nice.

Some guy got loud & mouthy with me - yelling at me from a little distance about not having Iris on her leash, which was only for a fleeting moment. I thought about closing the distance and perhaps smashing in his face because, unfortunately, I used to have an extremely violent side, although only when pushed does the beast take over.

Yes if your need to be some where at a certain time you should know you will most likely have to paddle your self down river two hours is a base line quick trip some One paddling. If you don't desire to paddle then you will be at the boats wave zone . So no paddling going to be more like 3.5 hour to 4 hour this is for a Lazy river meaning no waves no paddling. The more you paddle the faster you're gonna finish. Kids could enjoy this but there is no swimming just floating. You can bring a cooler and snack to but it's in the water and hot so phone I wouldn't recommend either cause iPhone might say tempo to hot needs to cool down. Just think about how much you want to have fun and think about how your kid or children may act or get scared don't make water not fun. Have a relaxing day with this team and enjoy a float
