Get a taste of lake life! With more than 40 miles of shoreline, the lake provides space for families and friends to gather and enjoy a day at the lake any time of year.

Host a family reunion in one of the group picnic areas. Pick one of three launch ramps to slip your boat into the cool waters for a day of skiing or tubing. Watch a colorful parade of sailboats race by in the spring and summer. Take a hike during the spring to see the foothills in wildflower bloom. In the winter, catch sight of bald eagles soaring high above the lake. An abundance of wildlife delight visitors throughout this park.
