This 10-acre park is open during the warmer months and is great for families. It offers a playground, picnic facility, small freshwater beach, bathrooms, and a wide range of seasonal recreational activities.
Featuring over 1200 acres of thickly wooded forests, many visitors arrive here to view the autumnal fireworks. The rich colors of evergreen pines and backdrop of vivid red cranberry bogs provide an uncommon contrast to the annual changing of the leaves.

Many other amenities abound; however, such as: canoeing, fishing, restricted hunting, picnicking, swimming, and cross-country skiing.
