Campground Overview
Indian Lake Park is a 177-acre, city owned park. This delightful retreat is an ideal location not only for fishermen, but for picnickers and campers alike. In addition to the 44-acre, no wake lake, the Park has many tree-shaded areas for the non-fisherman, as well. A lovely two-mile nature interpretive trail encompasses the lake and is great for hiking, biking, and cross country skiing in the winter. The lake has a roped-off swimming area (swim at your own risk-no lifeguard) and kayaks and canoes are available for rent.
Whether your interest is camping, fishing, hiking, picnicking, or a reunion, you will find Indian Lake Park the perfect setting. We hope you will visit us time and time again!
