Acquisition of the south shore site occurred in 1932; acquisition of the west shore site occurred in 1939, with development beginning there in 1965.[3] Members of the Civilian Conservation Corps and WPA developed the south shore site in the 1930s, building a log bath house[4] and a 40-by-80-foot limestone picnic shelter[5] that is still in use.[6]
The park offers swimming, boating, hiking, picnicking, and camping.[3]
