Our second stop on a 12000ml road trip around the USA. The place was all but empty, so no problems parking or getting around. We started with lunch from the chuck wagon (great and good value) then we walked out to the beach area via the lakeshore facilities(excellent) where I took a dip. What a surprise warm and not salty, because its a lake and not the sea, brilliant.

Hidden gem, lots of fun hiking trails, Long Beach Kos, and fun places to swim Good services, beach houses, and facilities well staffed with lifeguards during the summer Free From Labor Day to memorial day it’s free

I've never seen a beach so crowded In my life. If you want the public pool feeling, go for it. It was very uncomfortable. We walked quite a ways down the beach to get a spot with a little space around us and that's why I gave it 3 stars. The parking is what brings people here-- there's plenty of it -- (6$ a car) while other nearby beaches are very limited. Seeing the steel mills on either side of the beach was also a turn off. Again though, if you walk a ways to the south, you can find nicer spots with space. Lots of beautiful beaches-- drive around-- get there early!!

This is such a great beach! After you pay at the gate and park, you walk about 1/4 mile to a bathhouse where folks can buy ice cream and change into swimming clothes, etc. Then there's a big boardwalk-style staircase down to the beach itself. My wife and I went with my family, and our nieces had a blast. It was fairly crowded, but this didn't detract from the experience at all. Lifeguards were on duty, which is why there is a charge for this beach - as opposed to the other national-lakeshore beaches. Highly recommended.

Only public beach I've been to that has sand wheelchairs. That's a big plus. However the sand wheelchairs won't go through the bathroom doors. So you have to get a lifeguard to get you back your regular wheelchair, bathroom then get the sand wheelchair back. Bit of a hassle but at least they have a way to get physically challenged to the beach. So I'm giving them 5stars for that alone. It's clean and beautiful.
