Sightseeing
For a fabulous view of the lake and rolling hills, you can’t miss Overlook Park at the dam. A short hike to the beach area if you want to swim or just walk on the dam. We recommend going early because they do limit capacity. Opens at 7 AM and closes at sunset

Activities
Things to do to make your stay more exciting!
Tube chutes, rides, tube slides, and pools use spring fed river water that always stays a cool 72 degrees and flows right back into the river. Ride the famous black tubes for hours in the Original Section featuring the iconic castle. Find shade in the natural canopy of trees and spend the day together when you bring your own picnic. Of course rivers are only the beginning!

At dusk, the venue’s Creekside Stage and Biergarten lights up with subtle spot and torch lighting for a perfect evening ambience which also double as a music venue!
