I'm from out of town and while my son was at a hockey camp I was looking to get some sun and relaxation. For the size of the park and beach $20 is way to much for this spot.

There is one amazing house there with the best rope swing I've ever seen. The rest of the houses are kinda lame because they don't have such a good rope swing. But if you like houses without rope swings then there are plenty here for you. I once saw a fish and it looked happy to live here. If it gets cold enough the lake becomes solid. I don't know where the fish go, but I think they swim South for the winter. You should definitely check out Lake Boon if you like a house with a rope swing and a fish.

Nevertheless, it is a beautiful, easy hike in the fall! In order to get to the trail if you're going south on Lyman, you'll turn off on Hospital Road and go towards the lake. There is a paved parking lot. Note that there are no bathrooms or water fountains at the trail. There may be some at the beach area but we didn't make it there because the trail ended and we turned around. As a Floridian, I really enjoyed the lakeside hike to see some gorgeous fall colors!

There is a walking/hiking trail on the backside of the lake that is dog friendly (most are off-leash) . . . unfortunately many people with large dogs don't pick up their dog's s#!t, so watch your step.

My friend and I went yesterday and it cost $25 for the two of us, including parking. They actually do come around and check to make sure everyone paid. Small parking lot but if it is full, you can park on the next street. If you're looking at the lake, park on the street to the right of it. There is a floating dock to swim/walk out to. The water blocked off for swimming is not that deep. I think the deepest is probably 5 feet. They do have lifeguards on duty and a little snack shack. Water is clean for a lake and typically warm. There is a playground and a couple picnic tables. Not much shade. Kids are allowed to wear lifejackets, but that is all I recall seeing for flotation devices. They do have kayaks and I think paddle boots you can rent. Opens at 10 AM.

There is also a picturesque fountain with a pool at the bottom of the dam, a great spot to picnic as there are shade trees around the fountain. There are many trails around the reservoir, boasting great views of the pristine waterfront. You can't walk on top of the dam however, as it's been closed off for security reasons. There are many aprking spots around the reservoir, and near the busy dam, you can park on the side of the road. Be careful crossing, it's busy there.
