The Cove (Timothy Lake) Day-Use reviews
7Spent the day with my wife hiking around Timothy lake. The trail is 13 miles long. There are plenty of restrooms along the trail.
Amazing! Gorgeous, clean lake perfect for swimming plus a nice trail either for hiking or mtn biking
The day use areas of Timothy Lake are nice, the weekend parking attendant not so much, very rude.
Water felt sooooo good even after a cold night. Saw the park rangers they where very nice and informed me and my family that we shouldn't ride our boats out to the middle because the water plane is scooping water from the lake to help battle the fire.
Amazing beautiful place especially in the morning! Great for kayaking, Boats cannot go over 10mph. Don't forget to bring sunscreen!
Day use site had a perfect wading area that was shallow for a substantial area that the kids could trudge around and see the tiny fish. Easy to launch kayaks or rafts, as well. About a hundred feet from the parking area, so carrying things down wasn't a huge chore. A slight incline back up, but not too difficult carrying two kayaks. $5 fee, totally reasonable. Large lake, on a Wednesday there weren't too many people, easy to spread out, plenty of shoreline for everyone. Temperature was great, in the shallow parts, the water was warm, got colder, but quite nice.
The best please I have been with no algae. I can get my mom who's in a wheelchair down to the water if she wishes to watch us kids float out in the lake. So grateful. To injoy a place with her finally
