    Wonderful park with a lot of good trails and beautiful views. We’ve gone in winter months and may need spikes/ snow shoes depending on weather, but it is so often traveled that it may not matter. Great spot for a midday walk.

    Beautiful state park in Truckee along the lake and near the interstate. Plenty of activities at least in the summer where you can kayak, swim, hike, etc. Moderately busy when I was there, did a hike and explored the park and museum. Was $10 entry fee when I went. Recommended.

    Gorgeous state park and many beachfront opportunities that you don’t have to pay admission for in order to use. Water is very warm in the summer and far better than “west end beach”. Kayak rentals also available if one desires to use them. I was here to watch family members participate in a swim across Donner Lake.

    It's just one of our favorite places either for fishing, camping, or even for a day use. It's always well kept, and overall, it's surrounded by beautiful nature, plus their trails are breathtaking. Great place to getaway

    Good stop if you are crossing the sierra Nevada mountain range on I 80. Amazing story of pioneer heritage and history. Museum was closed when we got there but we did see the monument and walked around. They have a campground and lake which we didn’t go see, but it looks like a pretty amazing g place to pitch a tent. Take the kids to learn a little history about the American west.
