Come visit us at The Grove, an oasis inside Hugh Taylor Birch State Park. Grab a meal and a drink at our cafe and bar, shop, rent a kayak, or plan your next family reunion here.
Two ways to end a Saturday at The Grove. Paddle out as the sky turns, or roll out a mat and watch it from the shore.
Paddle Long Lake as the light goes gold, then come back to the dock for s’mores.
An hour of yoga by the water while the sun drops behind the trees. All levels welcome.
The Grill sits in the middle of the park, a few steps from the water. Order at the counter, grab a table in the shade, and take your time. Eat before you paddle or after you ride. Either way works.
