Overview

About

If you've ever fantasized about living on the west coast but it just hasn't happened, Cherokee Landing State Park is about as close as it gets. With a whopping 13,000 acres of water and 130 miles of shoreline, you can pretend you're on the beaches of Big Sur with all the activities available. Dig your toes in to the sand or lay out for a nice sun soak as the day wears on. Strap on the water skis, boat around the expansive waters, or grab your best bait and keep on the lookout for white bass and crappie inhabiting the lake. Once you enjoy a good old-fashioned game of softball, you'll feel like you just spent the weekend at Mother Nature's five-star fantasy resort.
