Such a beautiful afternoon I spent with my family! A hidden gem 💕
Beautiful area and great views of the lake. Beach is nice but the only draw back is the swimmers itch. If the wind is blowing onshore ( towards the beach) , you might want to look elsewhere for the day. While it’s not as bad as other areas, it’s still present
Beautiful clear water, very small beach approximately 50 feet wide. I was here on a Tuesday and there were only 3 groups of people which was fine but I can’t imagine being here on a weekend. Parking and restrooms are across the street.
Absolutely fantastic!!!! Beautiful beach, plenty of shady spots, the water is shallow for quite a ways out and really clear,practically no seaweed,perfect for kids, water is also on the warmer side for a lake, we found so many seashells and our daughter had a blast!!!!! Gorgeous sunsets!!!!!!! This is a must stop place for swimming and for walking though a super cute little town!!!!!
