The lake is where most daytime activity happens: boating, canoeing and kayaking from the ramp; swimming in designated areas; and fishing for bass, crappie and catfish. 5-mile Hopewell Trail accepts hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders, and links north to Kimball Bend Park or south to Lakeside Village and Powelldale Mountain; equestrian riders can also explore the McCown Valley Equestrian Area or use the equestrian camping at Plowman Creek Park.















Length limits vary by campsite.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (16,822 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
