What Guests Are Saying
Keyesport Rec. Area is conveniently located near Carlyle Lake, making access easy, especially to the pavilion. The site offers ample open space with a pleasant breeze, and the air-conditioned bathrooms are a unique feature. While the playground's proximity to the road and the need for more picnic tables were noted concerns, overall safety and accessibility were positively highlighted.

Doesn’t give address or coordinate to where this is located that it’s just on Carlyle lake not a whole different town. There’s no trash cans right at the pavilion just a dumpster down a not so even hill. And the playground was very close to the road. Yes even with parents keeping an eye on the child/children there’s always a chance a child can get away. And I wish there were a couple more picnic tables. Other than those things. It was very very close to the parking lot which made getting stuff to the pavilion very easy. There was enough open space that there was a good breeze. The bathrooms were air conditioned which I have never seen at a lake before. There were many cars in and out of the area and not one of them sped through there which I see a ton where I live. Easy walk to the beach.
