Once part of an expansive wetland, Harrison Lake retains the distinctive natural charm associated with wetlands. Witness shorebirds at the lake’s western end, delight in songbirds gracing the park’s meadows and woodlands, and spot a variety of amphibians and small mammals during your visit. For history enthusiasts, Sauder Village and other nearby historic sites add a touch of the past to your stay. Harrison Lake offers camping, boating, swimming, picnicking, and hiking—a harmonious blend of nature and history.
