Several unique trails of varying lengths. Hike the Carriage Road through a forest of ancient spruce, across log bridges and around a small pond, or follow an old logging road once used by the Roosevelts. Around the 1.6-km (1-mi) long beach, you will find sea urchins, a rich bog and sheer cliffs. Bald eagles, osprey and beavers are among the many species that can be observed along the trails at the park. The park has a 9-hole golf course with pro shop and a restaurant.
