I see a review saying kids love to swim here... are you allowed to swim? Can you lay out on the beach area?

No swimming allowed, but there is a beach for sunbathing and fishing. Years ago swimming was allowed.

No!! You are not allowed to swim at this location.

if you are looking for a lake like experience this isnt the right place to go. as others have noted there is no swimming allowed and even if there was my response would be advising against it.

Like other people have mentioned, you can rent kayak s, paddleboats, and canoes, and there is a beach area, but you absolutely can not swim. Besides the cyanobacteria, there is also unadvisable levels of run-off chemicals, and snapping turtles. If you want to be on the water, enjoy the boats, if you want to relax and tan, there is a beach area, just do not swim. I personally just go for the top notch frisbee golf course.

Kayaking 2 hours last weekend around almost the main lake area. The lake is shallow, water quality is bad. Nobody swimming.

The water is gross. The beach isn't really a beach. Drive another hour south and go to a real beach
