The park also offers a swimming beach, hiking trails, and other day-use amenities, making it a great spot for a full day of outdoor recreation. Overnight camping is available, with 60 campsites and one RV rental site.

Paddlers and boaters can enjoy the calm, scenic waters of Flat Creek - Lake Charles, which is fed by several smaller tributaries. The lake's size and relatively sheltered nature make it a good option for less experienced paddlers or those seeking a relaxed, leisurely outing on the water.
