Strouds Run State Park
Reservoir shoreline, wooded trails and rocky coves at Strouds Run State Park offer lake reflections, layered forest compositions and seasonal color (notably fall). Best at sunrise or golden hour for soft light and reflections; late afternoon for warm shorelines. Parking at Swimming Beach lot and boat ramps; trails vary from easy to rugged—bring boots, bug spray and check park rules/seasonal access. Weekdays and shoulder seasons reduce crowds.
