The Park is vegetated with mostly evergreen forest, and the lake is stocked with bass , catfish and trout . Facilities include a swimming area and a boat launch ramp. Bridle trails ring the lake and criss-cross the summit area. Paddleboats may be rented for hourly. There are a few small bass present, and catfish, but trout fishing is the main attraction for anglers, especially on opening day.
