This area has picnic tables and grills as well as a small playground and swimming. There is a public launch area for kayaks. It's not at the parking lot for swimming. As you turn off route 116 onto Forest Lake Rd there will be a public launch sign, just a short ways down the road on the left, that will take you to a spot to put boats/kayaks in. It's lovely to paddle around the whole lake and check out the lake houses.
