    Wife and I stopped by to see this unique wooden covered bridge. Impressive, also the unique LOVE sign in the adjacent little park. Unfortunetely upkeep appears to be lacking as seen by the missing descriptive plackard and much grafitti, especially inside the bridge.

    This waterfall was so beautiful, I cannot beleave the history and what it would have looked loke before it was damaged. There is a small parking lot so you do not have to park right on the road. But then you have to walk beside the road to see it.

    Stopped by Gathright Dam on the lake while traveling on a winter day in February after seeing signs at main road. Easy access, but about 20 minutes from main highway/nearest gas station. Lake was quite pretty as viewed from the Gathright Dam. A small parking lot at site, but no restrooms or picnic tables. There does not appear to be access to lower dam from this area and may not be allowed. We were traveling with a group of Scouts and did not stop at the group campground, so cannot comment on its status or amenities, but presume it was closed for season.

    Very friendly staff with clean restrooms. This was a great point to stop the drive, get out of the car, and stretch the back and legs. Great stop!!

    We took a bike trip from here. We had a great time. Helpful staff explained everything and pointed out places to stop along the map as well as made sure to tell us all the safety rules and intersections where cars traveled through. Perfect trail for kids. Almost no hills and a wide trail with crushed gravel. Nikes were nice and worked well.
