What a great place, beautiful, clean and well kept, and what a wonderful crew! I booked our shelter (both halfs) for our organization's annual Summer picnic over the phone but dropped the ball and didn't follow up with the contract. So when we arrived the morning of the event, I wasn't positive we were set up! But I reached Clay at the Park office, and he assured me that he had taken care of everything, he accepted payment over the phone so we didn't have to go to the office, and we were good to go. Then a large family showed up and said they had booked half of our shelter. Another call to Clay, he spoke with them over my phone, and they were happily on their way to the correct shelter, saying "What a nice man!" A young man, Bob, came around to check on us and make sure we had everything we needed and gave me a copy of the contract. He was so nice we invited him to join us, but sadly, he and Clay had their duties to attend to. We had a wonderful day at a great spot, and knew we were being well taken care of. I highly recommend this park for events of all sizes, and it's so family friendly as well! Thumbs up!!!

Running water at covered rented area. Room to run with kiddos and great play ground. Staff who where on site were friendly, helpful and super busy keeping the park beautiful.

Update: the lake was closed to swimming too. While the parking is free today the splash park is wrapped up and completely turned off. So there’s plenty of grass to walk around in and lovely nature to see plenty of fruit trees planted, but no splash park we’re gonna try the lake will update.

Can the kids go in the water? I have a 2 year old and we would like to check out the swimming area.

Theban L Tonnesen | Dec 17, 2019

Children under 5 are not allowed to swim in the lake (ecoli problems). They have a great splash pad (best in metro) that runs from 11am to 7pm when temp is above 70 degrees (May 28 - Sept 2). This is where you want to take the kids. Its at the far end of the park, just keep to the right and keep going.

Is it still 5 dollars if you were to be dropped off there and walk in or would it end up a different price?

Riley Wallace | Dec 16, 2018
Laurie Randall | Dec 17, 2018

I think there are paths around and in the park that as a walker you can enter anywhere for free. You could be dropped off at any path along the main road there. I've seen people walking their dogs on those paths and I'm sure they haven't paid to get in. It is still $5.00 per car to park.

Becky Rodriguez | Dec 16, 2018

If You have a bigger group, I would recommend reserving something. If it's just one family you can find something probably without reservations. Also, weekends are busier at Blue Lake.
