The Lakeside Park features numerous trails for walking/hiking and mountain biking. The clearly marked trails are interspersed with opportunities to enjoy the water front views, have a picnic or do a little fishing. The park features three separate fishing decks that have been strategically located to afford the best opportunities for success and provide fantastic views of the lake. Recently, the Town added an ADA accessible fishing deck and a binocular viewing scope. The picnic shelter is available for birthday parties, family gatherings or just relaxing by the lake and enjoying the scenery and wildlife. Reservations for the picnic shelter can be made at the Shuford Recreation Center by completing a rental agreement and paying the applicable rental fee. If the picnic shelter is not reserved, it is available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Bathroom facilities are also available. Pets allowed on leashes.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
