A leisurely walk along the nature trail is an ideal way to enjoy both wildlife and natural features of the park. A variety of wild flowers are observed most of the year, including Red Bud, Dog Wood, Magnolia, and a wide variety of herb type plants. Birding can be enjoyed most of the Winter with the migration of water fowl on the lake and various song birds most all the time. The Highlands youth camp site is also available for groups. Facilities include a boat ramp and 100-foot fishing pier.
Canoe rentals are available at the park.
