We stopped going because my father (the organizer and outdoor enthusiast) passed away in 2004. I hope to go back one day with my family. The lakes are gorgeous, the scenery is awesome and there are TONS of hidden treasure spots along the lake that you learn about the more you're there. I can think of several right now. Just an FYI - if a member of your group has a disability requiring oxygen or wheelchair the state park will allow for a vehicle permit back there (we had to do it with my Grandpa). OH! And there is plenty of wildlife...we've seen snakes, deer, beavers, loons and several other animals. Luckily never any moose or bears!! I love that place so much and can't wait to go back some day!!
