Very nice spot to fish or walk. The loop takes about 30-40 min to walk. Lots of benches to relax, wildlife to watch, and spots to fish.

Even though we haven’t been very successful in the fish catching portion of this park, its a beautiful and well kept park with lots of trail to walk around the water. We were able to hook a rainbow last visit so not too bad. My son loves playing in the sand and walking the shoreline.

I love walking on the trail around the lake here. It is so beautiful and peaceful, especially at sunset. It is a clean, safe, and quiet park for walking or riding your bike. There is plenty of parking in the lot. They even have benches around the park and trail to sit by the water. I will be back soon.

This is one of our favorite places to walk. There is a paved trail along a lake with the Cedar River along one side. It's also a great place to see wildlife such as deer, groundhogs, turtles, eagles, etc.

Great parking and trails, and it looked like there was quite a bit of access for fishing. I was there for wildlife photography, and it offered plenty of opportunities for that as well. There appeared to be a couple different species of turtles, lots of different birds, and while I couldn't find the frogs, I could hear some!
