Modern amenities include flush toilets and showers, though facilities may close during extremely cold conditions. The 32-acre Cave Lake reservoir is stocked with rainbow trout and home to German brown trout, providing excellent fishing from shore or boat. Motorized boats are permitted with a 5-mph speed limit. Summer activities include hiking on four developed trails, mountain biking, and swimming. Winter brings opportunities for ice fishing, skating, snowmobiling on approved roads, and cross-country skiing. The park is home to elk, mule deer, and diverse wildlife.
