About Sylvan Lake State Park
A 42-acre lake sits at the center of this 1,548-acre park, surrounded on all sides by the White River National Forest. The park offers 1.5 miles of trails for exploring the area around the water. Its total acreage and the surrounding national forest boundary give it a scale that shapes how much of the land is left undeveloped.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
