Good trail, easy to get to lake

Great place with lots of space to walk, run, and bike. Places to camp and covered picnic area.

Really nice views of the lake and lots of trails to hike on. Theres also a dock for swimming and fishing.

Super sized panorama of awesome Alaska glacier valley in February. Rock and snow slides across the dirt road were a caution about driving all the way down, so we walked and ate at the restaurant up on the highway afterwards. Want to fall in love with Alaska, come see this too.

Love this trail! Great place to hike with my little active Parson Russell. Beautiful place:)

Great rest area.

Beautiful park, surrounded by lush trees, fields, shrubs, with docks for fishing plus plenty of shoreline for fishing as well. Its like a small piece of heaven! I loved it.

Definately enjoyed the park and will be back! Good place for swimming and more!

Beautiful hike around the lake. Too bad the shooting range is close by and scares our doggies to the point of running away

An awesome place to hike, bike etc... More than 30 miles of trails to play on!

Fun place to take the kids fishing.

Fabulous forest trail system for walking and riding bikes!!The square trail intersection posts each need a location map. it is easy to get lost. *Cell phone mapping is not current to the installed trails.The trail intersection side-of-post signage relies on arrows, the paths do not allways align.*A Colored dot on sign arrow could match a colored marker at start of trail. Main line trails could use a different pattern. This would provide better flow.*4ea. 100 cleared Life Flight helicopter landing spots should be interspaced on the Ridge tops. A cell phone call for help cannot locate or reach you. Clearing trees would provide viewpoints.A trail worker volunteer sticker should be available as a seasonal pass for those of us who would participate in these updates.

Nicely maintained trails and docks for fishing and swimming

Clean lake nice to go swimming nice and deep.

Good place to stretch your legs from a long drive

Very quiet and cozy place for family to camp. Host was kind and courteous. And maintenance guy was very generous and caring

Fun and safe place to hike. Right amount of hills and flat areas

Easy to get to, and good place for kids.

Awesome trails awesome lakes

Good spot, good fishing. Reccomend

We just have great experience in Alaska! Amazed by how convenient everything was designed. Thank you for those who made it happen.

Excellent place. Diamond in the rough. Great mountain bike trails. Mosquitos are getting vicious, but if you adventurous enough to take a quick swim in the lake the irratation will subside for hours. Im definitely going to spend my birthday out here.

It was not one of my favorite sites. It wasnt very scenic and the parking lot was littered with potholes and was unpaved.

So much fun!

Nice quick walk or you can make it a long hike.

Beautiful lake, lovely scenery, nice trails to hike, can bring boats and finish on the lake or swim, one of the cleanest lakes in alaska but unclean restrooms every single visit, they either smell to high heaven or they are crawling with flys, spiders and other nasty bugs. 7$ parking fee.

$5 day parking, $20 overnight, great place to see the stars/aurora at nightgood fishing spot, hikes are easy and flat, lots of green and tons of lakes

Short trails abound around Matanuska lake. As a bonus, the day use area connects to a longer trail system. A $7 day use fee is charged per vehicle regardless of party size.

Its quiet and peaceful. A great place to get back in touch with nature.

Love this lake, crystal clear water, gas powered engines are prohibited. Great swimming and family spot!

Some of the best trails in Alaska for hiking and biking. Mix of wide open fields and single track.

We stayed in the open area, and it was ok. Protected from wind, quiet. There is another small camp area in the trees that I fidnt see, but looked nice. Ok for pasding thru.

Great trails for running, biking and horses.
