The state park has endless opportunities for fun both on and around the water. Spend the night in one of their yurts, pitch a tent, or claim a cabin around this small but stunning lake. After you're settled you'll want to head to Falls Branch Trail.
This hike is a favorite for many reasons. Not only is Falls Branch Trail easy and kid-friendly, it also has a rewarding pay-off!

The loop is about two miles long and perfect for little hikers. The trek takes about two hours to accomplish but it's easy to lose the day when you find the waterfall.
