I used to go there when I was younger. There was a park area where we could primitive camp. We could fish all night and enjoy the peace of primitive camping. Now the parks close at 9:00. So night fishing there is a no. And where you can fish at night,there's a small concrete pier/dock. But there's only room for a couple of people and their gear. You can bank fish but there's limited space. Is ther... I used to go there when I was younger. There was a park area where we could primitive camp.

Nice, clean picnic area with a small man-made beach and swimming area on West Point lake. Shaded area with tables and grills.

A horrible experience! After paying to get into park we are told to leave park because we have a trailer with jet ski. The park was nearly empty in the middle of July now we know why.
