grand lake st mary's state park

My friends and I rented two "cabins" on the lake for the weekend of a marathon in the area. The cabins were easy to find, even if the dude at the check-in drive through mumbled the directions. The area was super beautiful! There were tons of fish jumping, even near the cabin. Looked like speed boats, yachts, kayaks, etc were out on the water. The cabin was really nice - for being essentially a trailer! We were in the bigger two, so there were two bunk beds, a double, and a foldout couch. The quarters were tight - especially for the kitchen. You bring your own dishware and your food, towels, and sheets. There was hot running water in our cabin, though the boys said there wasn't in theirs. We loved it, actually. It was very easy to get to Celina for lunch and back. A local guy during the marathon told me that the area was known for pizza and beer...so ordering a pizza to the camp would be a great idea!
