    What a great family day at the Salmon Festival. Great knowledge being passed down and taught from the fish, plants, gold and mineral mining and so much more. Wonderful hosts and hostess with each station where the kiddos can take part with interactive and educational activities. There were so mean different organizations involved to give the kiddos and families a wide variety of new skills and natural history. Thank you for all the hard work it took to have this event again. We sure have missed the good family local event.

    I didn't go to the recreation portion of the park. I stopped to see the history of the area. I read the bridge is the longest covered bridge west of the Mississippi. There is also an old mill, which was pretty awesome. From what I could tell, it didn't seem busy. Cool place.

    Nice, peaceful walk/hike.. there were people around but there is enough space to be secluded as well.. bbq area with benches and a safer area to enter the water if youd like. 5$ parking.. dog friendly.. bathrooms and trashcans along the trail

    Really nice place to hike. Easy if you want it to be, more challenging if you're willing. However, people need to learn to clean up after themselves, I packed out a grocery bag full of other people's trash. Definitely worth a visit though. Bring swim attire if brave enough. There are places to get in and it's a nice little swim while hiking.

    Love coming here for the day since HS in the 80's. Summer is hot but the water is cool with shallow places to set a lawn chair. Spring and Fall are best. Kayaking or open water rafting are really popular. Lots of shady areas, picnic tables, and nice restrooms. Fabulous to spend a day!
