The park is terrific. Our early December visit was filled with hiking and mountain biking for all ages and skill levels. Our fishermen easily caught several perch. The space between the sites are wooded enough even with the fallen leaves to give you plenty of privacy and gave the kids a great spot to build a fort.

We stayed at Double Lake for two nights with our 1 year old and 3.5 year old. We loved it and will definitely be back!! We were here just before Thanksgiving, and it was so beautiful. The pinecones, the changing leaves, the huge trees, and of course the lake. The campsites are well maintained. The women's bathroom was extremely clean and well-lit.
