Official listing
Plane spotting thrills kids
Aircraft land directly overhead on the eastern side, creating an exciting experience for children interested in planes.
Cleanliness varies significantly
Some visits report well-maintained trails while others describe substantial litter in parking areas and shoreline, so assess conditions on arrival.
Go at sunset
The lake views combined with planes landing create particularly beautiful scenery during golden hour.
Visit early morning or weekday
Sundays get very busy and parking fills up, while early visits offer better peace and available shaded benches.
Bring a full water bottle
No public restrooms exist, only poorly maintained portable toilets, so plan accordingly for a 3.5-mile loop walk.
