Description
Mostly single track loop with a few short gravel or paved sections. Not overly technical but can get tight in spots. Fun ride nonetheless and a good spot to take beginners.

Review: Rode the race course here and it was a blast. Old school trails that are rocky, fast, straight up and straight down. No dabs and good views.

Review: Tried for the first time on June 15th (mid-week). What a wonderful surprise. Nice variety and a total blast! One of the best trails east of Mississippi. Really need to go mid-week. With blind turns can't imagine what would ensue with weekend hikers. Put it on the list!

Review: Rode this trail last weekend with my wife and six year old on a tag along. Good trail to ride early in the morning before it gets crowded. Beach close by to cool off after the ride. Well worth the trip.

Review: This trail was fun to ride, the back side of the lake after getting back on the trail from the short section of asphalt is awesome all the way to the lodge. Decent loop and not too long. Overall not too bad, just a very crowded trail.

Review: Lakeside loop is fun intermediate with some interesting technical features. Evitts Homesite trail a tough long climb. Rocky trail lives up to its name. Unmarked trail in western section of park ( turn right out of the rear parking area then immediate right up the trail ) is very challenging

Review: Trail had some real nice elevation shifts and tight spots. My cousin couldnt keep up.. hehe. There is a golf resort right on the lake so its a good overnighter, plus there are other trails to be had as well. Use caution, as all trails are also hiking trails as well.
