Few level and graveled areas maintained around shore to fish from. No motorized flotation devices. No hunting. No camping. No trash services.

I have driven by this many times. But because my grandson needed the restroom, we stopped. We ended up exploring the trail around the lake. The scenic value surprised me too. Several people were fishing. Some just relaxing. A bench here and there gives a person a chance for some repose. I noticed future plans for an interpretive center for Yakima Canyon. A bronze memorial also had interesting history of the Inland Empire Highway.

Love this little piece of heaven! Great place for a potty break and a walk around the lake.

This is a great place to stop and rest when traveling through the Yakima River Canyon. Discover Pass required.

This is a small fishing pond, no grass or beach. It was clean with restrooms

Helen McCabe State Park is a spot where there is opportunity to stretch your legs with a clean maintained restroom. There is no fee however a discover pass is required. There is a nice trail around the lake with several benches scattered along the way.The lake itself has a couple of developed fishing that can be accessed easily. Tthe state stocks the lake with trout and in the spring the fishing is good. Next time youre traveling to Yakima take the time to stop here for a bit of relaxation and some fishing.

Great fishing around the times they stock it in the spring. Regularly catch 10-14 trout. Fishing will get slow a while after theyve stocked it. Fishing from small boat/kayak seems to be the best.

Beautiful for walking and nature watching! Nice trail system and you can tell that the Kittitas Environmental Education Network is taking care of it and working on improvements.

Great fishing area not to good for swimming due to glass but amazing fishing and relaxing place

Ok fishing

Good place to fish and go for a short walk, but I would not consider it a State Park. Very small

Beautiful peaceful pond with a bench and walking trail for my pooch

Beautiful place to sit down relax catch you some fish and be in great company

No fish in Lake, could be the two Osprey nests nearby, like on edge of lake. Nice trails and views, but not much else.

Gorgeous

Good fishing. My daughter caught a 4lb large mouth bass. Lots of little sunfish. Supposedly large catfish never seen tho

Its basically a fishing hole with smelly vault toilets.

Found some pretty cool rocks

Great little park to take a break. Lake fishing, path, restrooms.

Easily accessible small park with gravel parking and pit toilets

Water is over growing not good for fishing

Nice place for a quick fishing stop

Fishing is hit or miss
