About Chewacla State Park

Civilian Conservation Corps-era development shaped this land into a public recreation area of 696 acres below Interstate 85. Its central feature, the 26-acre Lake Chewacla, supports fishing, swimming, and non-motorized boating. The grounds sit on the far south side of Auburn, giving visitors a body of water and surrounding acreage set aside for outdoor use since 1939.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
