There is a bike trail on the park with free boat rides(summer), 11 beaches, lighthouses, woodland trails and plenty of caches. Across the street is Waldemeer Amusement park complete with a water park and roller coaster. No night caching. Approach it from the south side so as to not damage any bushes or grasses. The landscape is left natural to encourage butterfiles, bees, birds etc.
