About Lake Bruin State Park
An oxbow lake forms the park's shoreline, cut off from the river's main channel over time. The park sits along this bend of water, giving visitors access to the lake itself as the central feature of the grounds.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
