Jones State Forest is Saved - Thank you Senator Creighton for saving Jones State Forest SB 345 was signed by the Governor to protect 100 of the forest forever.
great park - excellent park very clean tidy washrooms were very clean park hosts Jim and Sue were fabulous helping park and finding local area attractions
First Time Visitor - Site looked has if no maintenance had been provided in months. Johnson Grass three feet high, grass burs everywhere, sidewalks not edged. As a retired State Employee I was shocked by the condition of this supposedly sacred ground.
W.G. Jones Park Under Threat - A recent state bill was introduced to allow bulldozing of areas of the W.G. Jones Park for commercial buildings. SB 1964 was recently sponsored by Sen Creighton. It would effectively destroy this park.
First time visitor - This park is lovely. Having a level spot is essential in my van. Lots of shade, electricity, water, fire rings, picnic tables and showers in the bath! What more could you want. Entrance and 2 nights = $52.00
- Its a wonderful place to go horseback riding. The trails are nice wide and very well kept. Mostly shaded, good parking, and with a nice mounting block for those people who need it.
My favorite Place - My dad used to bring my sister and I down here at least twice a summer. I just took my kids for the first time camping, in March . Love this Place and everything in it.
- Came out with family and friends for the first time! It was great! Kids loved the beach and parents loved the privacy! Felt like nobody was near you!
