~ Camping is allowed (135 sites) for tents and RV (has hook-ups), and reservations can be made online.

~ Dogs are allowed, must be on a leash (not allowed on the beach)

Hi Joan... hate being out on water... I suffer from terrible motion sickness when on water. And I'm allergic to sun exposure so sitting in the sun on a boat is not quite my thing!

Nina Hollander, Broker AWWW, that makes perfect sense.   I have never had motion sickness, even in the roughest waters while deep sea fishing.

Cherry Creek State Park looks like a very fun place to spend the day.  I would love to do a little fishing there.

Hi Joan,

This sounds like a great park to escape to for a little R&R.  I know my husband would like it. Me... not so much, I had my fill of camping in the 80s!

Sheri Sperry - MCNE® I am done with camping too, but a great getaway even for the day on the water or in the park.

Kathy Streib the day I was there, there was not a soul in this part of the part, and wonder if many know they added this.

Brian England it was really hot this week when I was there, and wishing I had brought my suit when I got to the beach!
