One of the most beautiful spots I've ever seen. A few weeks ago my family and some friends visited. Our plan was to take a ten mile canoe trip, then take the 2.5 mile hike. On the canoe trip we got lost (ended up going 26 miles and having to be rescued by a Jet Ski--I'm sure we looked hilarious....three canoes tied together being pulled by a jet ski). After that we were too tired to do the hiking trail! We're definitely going to go back. If you've never been here, you must go soon. It's really an unforgettable experience. Take the canoe trail, but be sure to turn left when you see the "return to state park" sign (our mistake). Also make time to fish a little (my husband had great luck).
See the following site for park information and trail map.

They do have a really nice hot tub, and the B&B part looked nicer than the guesthouse (which was a little rough around the edges but nice overall). See their website for information and beautiful pictures of the lake.
