Here's more info from the NLQP Web site: The campground is 250 acres of forest, meadow, rock formation, and water. There are two fishing lakes, besides the swimming quarry. The fishing lakes are home to large bass, catfish, crappie and blue gill. You may also find many waterfowl and smaller animals like turtles, frogs, nonpoisonous snakes, and other small fresh water life. The Quarry is spring-fed, clear, clean and warms up by mid May. The forests consist of a variety of trees, wildflowers, mushrooms and an assortment of plantlife. Many small, to large mammals.. Squirrels, opossums, raccoons, wild turkeys, pheasants, woodpeckers and song birds, along with the elusive loon and so much more,consider the park their home. The individual campsites cater to one's personal preference for site location. Whether it's on the ledge by the water, or deep in the quiet woods. You may camp near the social activity, or settle in one of the quiet, isolated areas.We pride ourselves on being a primitive campground to avoid the trailer/RV park look of our competitors. Campers and winnebago's are more than welcome to visit for a few days, but long stays are not encouraged, and there is limited electric and no water hook up. Week and weekend tent camping, along with regular daytime swimming admission, make up the majority of our business. Weekend and holiday camping tends to be more busy , but lucky enough to get the chance, weekday camping can sometimes allow you the entire park to yourself. Facilities include: Picnic areas picnic tables charcoal grills A new large playground area Our stage doubles as a pavilion for all occasions Five privy style rest rooms (4 handicapped accessible) A full basketball court with adjustable hoops for kids 250 acres for hiking, biking, exploring and nature Volleyball court Beach Game room And so much more. The Quarry has a large and natural beach area with a shallow, roped in shelf for the children's swimming area. The rest of the quarry is up to 30 ft. deep in most places.We employ Red Cross certified lifeguards, and have multiple guards on duty daily. The water is open from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily. Because the water is spring fed, and if scuba diving is your fancy, check our scuba page. Water clarity and visibility are excellent. Even for the average swimmer, a mask and snorkel can provide hours of fresh water exploration. And dont forget the fishing lakes! (see Casey below) Hiking gives campers an opportunity to utilize the many paths and trails throughout the park, and one cannot visit our park without stopping next door, at the Nelson-Kennedy Ledges State Park, to explore their caves, caverns, and rock formations... Not to mention Irene's old fashioned arcade. RATES: Our park is open year round. Day admission runs from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Adults 15 over are $5.00 on weekdays and on weekends. Children 15 and under are $3.00. Always free to the non-ambulatory, blind, deaf or persons with disabilities. Camping Rates: Individual camping fee includes the day of arrival, that evening, and the following day until 7:00 p.m. Adults are $10.00 per person--kids 15 & under w/parent are half price.
