About this spot
Scattered throughout the park beneath a canopy of oak trees are numerous picnic tables, as well as a group pavilion and 2 playgrounds. Overnight visitors can use the park's boat launch to access the Tchefuncte River, where a variety of fish can be found. When you enter the park, you will notice a large home facing the water. This is the Otis House Museum, originally built in the 1880s as the family home for sawmill owner William Theodore Jay. It was later purchased and renovated in the 1930s by Frank Otis, serving as his summer home until his death.
