Two campgrounds serve overnight visitors, and trails run through the property for hikers, bikers, backpackers, and equestrians alike, giving several ways to move through the land beyond the shoreline.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
