The park officially became a state park in 1949, and from then has continued to develop. Today, visitors can find a range of useful facilities while still maintaining much of its natural charm. Many people who rent an RV in Walworth County may also choose to explore the varied and interesting surroundings, with various other campgrounds, attractions, towns such as Elkhorn, Delavan, and Burlington within easy reach.
