Peaceful and beautiful. If you live near here it should be your go-to place for swimming and relaxing. If you dont live near then it is a great place to travel and camp. Veterans get in free.
There is boating nearby at Greeleys Landing and in town there is the famous Bears Den restaurant with cabin motel rooms.

Beautiful place to camp and to enjoy the fresh air! Clean sites and fresh potable water. Bathrooms are pristine. The little rock formations are beautiful here, I enjoyed the creativity of the picnic tables next to the stones.
Gorgeous view of the lake viewing Borestone mountain. Nice clear water and clean beaches, and it also has a fun playground for kids!

Very friendly and helpful park rangers here. Will help you out whatever they can. Can't wait to come back next year!

Great place to go swimming the water is sandy when you get about a foot deep. They have a decent size playground.

Over all, a very nice campground. We stayed for a week in August of '23. There's a nice beach/swimming/playground/picnic area with ample parking for day use only. There are decent bathrooms/showers with hot water. There are lots of hiking trails all around the park. My only complaint was how rough the dirt roads were within the park. The numerous potholes did a number on my old pickup truck's suspension!

We tent camped here for two nights. It was quiet during the time we went (Sept 11-13), so not too many camping. The site was nice and spacious, including a picnic table and ring for a campfire. Sites are well spaced out too, and there are many large boulders in between. Fun for kids to climb! Bundles of wood are available at the checkin booth for $6. Bathrooms/showers are also available and very spacious. There is a downhill trail leading to the lake, with a spot to swim, small playground for kids, picnic tables and grills, and a trail to walk. They also offer kayak, boat, and canoe rentals for $3 an hour per boat (as of 2022). There are bathrooms by the lake, as well, and spots to rinse off.

This place is peaceful and beautiful, thickly wooded with views of the mountains when you're at the lake. You can hear the loons on the lake at night!

Had a great day at the beach with the grandkids here. Sandy beach. Little bit rocky in spots in the water but not bad. There was a small playground and areas you could set up for a day of bbq and be in the shade if your not one for being in direct sunlight all day. Fun for all here.

This park is one of my favorite park in Maine. I went around 1:00pm it was not crowded , the entrance fee is $5 per person , the restrooms area are SO clean. The park itself is well maintained, lots of great views and space to spend a relaxing time.The beach is rocky but it has an area where you can walk on sand. The water was not too cold they also offer kayaks and please do the trails are well marked and you will have an amazing experience!

Loved this place. Great lakeside swimming spot with playground and picnic area. There are a few short trails available for a short step out or a couple longer hikes for those wanting to make a day outing. There are several nice views throughout the park of mountains and the lake below. There is also a scavenger hunt of sorts as there are quite a few picnic tables scattered through the trails that are a bit...odd...take a look and enjoy the hunt! Well recommended! Great rangers and staff. Laid back. The campground park was great as well. We stayed for 4 nights. Clean facilities with showers. Great environment and family friendly. There are a few sites for reserve that have electric (hard to get as there aren't many. Lol). Generators are allowed (8am-8pm). Pet friendly! Go and stay or hike or swim! It's worth it to go and unplug...and I do mean unplug (not a lot of signal).
