About Fishtrap Lake State Park

About 1,130 acres of water make up Fishtrap Lake, the main feature around which this park was built. The lake anchors the grounds, offering the primary reason to visit. No other natural features or facilities beyond the lake itself are noted, so the water is the central draw for anyone deciding whether to make the trip.

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