There are no utility hook-ups except at two host sites. Accessible restrooms and showers are on-site. Half of the campsites can be reserved; others are first come, first served.
- Hiking: There’s plenty of room for some light hiking inside this recreation area. Check out the 1-mile-long scenic bluff trail that can be enjoyed by visitors of all ages. Picnic areas are located along the way and this is an ideal spot to enjoy an al fresco lunch.
