We had not previously camped here but did some boating on the lake in 1989 and 1990. Although the water level drops considerably over the summer, it is a popular waterway for fishing, sailing, tubing and water skiing and the shoreline is dotted with cottages.
The Grand River Conservation Authority is presently completing some improvements to the lower part of the dam. While touring the "lower park" we made an interesting discovery. An "old order" Mennonite couple in their twenties were enjoying a day at the park, tossing a baseball back and forth and using one of the barbeques provided in the park. Nearby was their buggy and the horse was tied at a special area designated for horses. It became obvious that the park gets some regular use from these local folks.
