Mongold Day Use Area (Detroit Lake State Park) reviews
7Really nice boat ramp lots of parking, very well taken care of park with Clean Bathrooms.
Took a day trip, nice picnic spots but the only restrooms were literally a half mile away.
Beautiful lake with easy ramps. Swimming areas were large and easy to access as well.
When we pulled in there was a sign at the check-in stating that the area was filled to go find a place and then come back and pay for your day ticket. We had barely parked and my husband was simply helping unload our picnic supplies before going back and getting the ticket. When the park attendant drove by and spent 15 minutes trying to find out why he was parking and unloading and hadn't bothered by a ticket. The other issue was that every garbage can that we saw had bags that people had put their trash in and had to leave outside the garbage cans because they were not checked and changed. I will give the people visiting a lot of credit because they didn't just leave their stuff laying around. They actually put it in bags and neatly set it by the garbage containers. The bathrooms were clean with the little bit of papers and stuff on the floor here and there, but the layout of the bathroom was really nice.
Mongols Day Use Area offered us a fantastic day. We parked, cooked, and had an amazing time. Highly recommended for a wonderful outdoor experience.
They aren’t handicap friendly no handrails going up stairs to the toilets my nearly fell going up the steps and the steps are not to code
Today I took my son fishing and I went there because Google said it was handicap accessible. That is not true! There was no place that I could safely walk down to the lake or use a wheelchair to access the lake. So I decided to use a chair on the least used boat ramp which I could easily get up and move as needed. I was not blocking the ramp! Well the lake police came along and told me that I could not be there. So I asked them where the handicap accessible fishing area was. They told me that they did not know who told me that there was a handicap accessible area there but I could not fish there so I needed to leave! Apparently they don't have to honor ADA guidelines
