Situated in a heavily wooded area with rolling terrain, this 1,305-acre park, Baker Creek State Park offers incomparable camping and fishing opportunities. Take advantage of the 10-mile mountain biking trail for unequalled views of the Piedmont forest, land and waterfowl, and other wildlife. A lakefront pavilion accommodates large groups for barbeques or family reunions.
