There are two areas in this park to hike meadowbrook and bonanza. We hiked short trails in both…read more Meadowbrook was mostly a trail cut into a field. It had some nice wildflowers and butterflies to check out along the way. As it was only a mile, it was a nice way to stretch the legs. The hiking club trail is at the bonanza area which is about 11 miles from Meadowbrook. It's a walk along the lake which takes you to a small waterfall which is colored red from the iron in the water. We saw several deer, a turkey family, and a few frogs along the path. Nice hike. The gentleman in the visitor center was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

We are prairie fans!!! Loved the hikes. (If you like the prairie setting visit Blue Mound.) Loved…read morethat they are restoring the land to the original habitat with wild native grasses and flowers. We saw deer right when we turned into the long drive into the park. We had one of the few electrical sites. Park wasn't busy. This place is a secret?! There was a boat landing and parking lot adjacent to the campground. This is a fishing lake. Didn't see any water sports or even any swimming. As big as the lake is, it has a pond feel near the edge with algae and weeds. We still went in at the little beach area. Call us HOT and desperate. We found there was a big spring area in the water where it was literally freezing. I have felt cold spots in lakes before, but this was a big area where you could walk or stand on sand that was as cold as ice. ReFreshing! The staff comes by a couple times a day if you have questions. Otherwise there is a building with some tshirts and smore sticks where he hangs out.

My 2 friends and I needed bait to fish at a relaxing lake nearby and we heard about this place for…read morebait. It was a beautiful day and the view was great from the bait shop to the water. We walked into the bait shop and right as the door closed we felt unwelcomed and uncomfortable. The first impression was some "locals" making us feel like we were the most unintelligent beings on the face of the earth. We asked them for minnows and they checked in the area where the minnows were and said they were out of minnows! We couldn't believe that a bait shop wouldn't have minnows. So I went into the bait area to look for worms in the fridge and a man yelled at me making a scene and told me "you are not allowed to go back there". We knew right away that we needed to leave and we did. The entire time the employees refused to talk to us and were a factor to the discomfort at the place. We didn't even want to purchase any worms at that point and had to travel 20 miles east to get minnows. Would not encourage buying any bait from this place because it's very unreliable and the atmosphere of the place would be enough to ruin someone's day.
