Families can play volleyball, kayak, and paddle board out on the water, and enjoy a delicious meal outdoors.
Food may be brought in and prepared in various barbecue areas or purchased from one of the many concessions.
The smaller Sandy Beach and Dutch Bill Beach are popular areas for fishing, fly-fishing, and picnicking.
