Just loved this place, so beautiful and calm. Perfect place to visit if you want less crowd, gives a sense of private beach. Will definitely recommend 10/10. ☀️⛱️🌊❤️

Beautiful area, but as of this past weekend, the water levels are so high there’s very limited to no accessible shoreline. At some point, the water went right up to the edge of the trail. If you’re willing to walk the trail a bit, you can find some small sandy spots. We had young kids with us and the trail is not stroller or wagon friendly and we ended up at a spot that is really far away from restrooms and parking. Still had an amazing time! This area is better suited for hiking and if you’re carrying not a lot of gear.

You can play with dogs. However, there is a lot of gravel, which can hurt dogs' paws. It's a beautiful little beach. Parking and restrooms are 1/2 mile away.
