The "facilities" are primitive. The running water is the river. Although
it is not polluted, I myself don't drink from it. My dog and the wildlife seem healthy enough, but I bring my own drinking
water. We do have the individual bottles of water for sale in the bait shop. And there is a faucet at the baithouse
which is left over from the quarry operation which gives good enough water for plants and radiators, but again, I don't even
make the coffee with that!
There are a couple portapotties around the property which
are serviced weekly and kept clean and with TP, so we are not entirely uncivilized. The main one behind the Bait Shop is handicapped
accessible.
We used to have a dozen picnic tables. Those that weren't carried
off by the flood in '97 were either burned up by campers or turned over and used as rafts by local varmints and are perhaps
somewhere down stream. We tried to keep up with this activity for awhile, but gave it up. So, there aren't any
more wooden picnic tables. There are currently a dozen concrete tables scattered about the park and one wooden one left.
To be on the safe side, pack a card table if you need or want one.
The plus is that there is a decent boat ramp to the river that
will handle a flat-bottom rig up to 22 feet comfortably. Although I have seen a few intrepid souls launch larger craft,
I'ld recommend smaller flat-bottomed boats. Canoes and kayaks can go anywhere. And, again, gas motors for
the river; electric or MANUAL motors ONLY on the ponds.
Oh, and beware of the..........
