The setting of the facility is a young ponderosa pine forest, straddling a creek with easy access to a paved Forest Service Road. Opportunities for picnicking with a large group exist in the Day Use Area. Additionally, a short hike and wildlife viewing along Sugar Creek Trail are available throughout the facility.
