Forfar Recreation Park Beaches are very popular because they are large and sandy with a shallow swimming area. Forfar was the name given to the school district years ago and it stuck to the area.
The beaches have a campground and day use area with all of the usual amenities. The area is family friendly and there are lots of other beach options within an hour drive as well.
Long Lake has traditionally been known for good beaches and good water quality.
