There are quite a few fun things to do at the park but the waterfall is the highlight that draws people from all over. It's a stunning waterfall that literally pours over and through its base.
Around the waterfall, there is an easy 1.3-mile walk that is worth taking and provides different vantage points of it.
There is also a marina where you can rent boats (or bring your own) and play in Lake Britton or hang out on the park's five miles of coastline enjoying a picnic, playing and swimming!
Fishing is a popular activity here so don't forget your poles when you make the trip. There is also a store, gift shop and much more.
