I love the Somerville Marina area. You can rent canoes for $15 a hour and they have a variety of items in the store. The staff is always wonderful and seem to remember me now!

Staff at the marina were very patient and helpful. We are new to fishing but our kids wanted to try and the marina staff helped with everything. We caught 6 or 7 fish (all to be released) in about 2 hours late morning.

I love it, that you have to pay to launch your boat it keeps the riff raft out dont have to worry about your vehicle while boating or fishing as much.

This place is great, Ive been coming here for a long time. They Could use another boat ramp, and a little love and care on the cabins.

The park was great, and the sunset was awesome. If you stay the day, and do not bring a camper. Make sure you bring your own toilet. Because theyre bath houses are wasp invested and nasty. Nowhere to use a restroom unless you have your own.

Nice clean family-oriented place to enjoy the lake. unfortunately water levels do dictate how much of the park hell be able to use. That did not stop my teenage children from having a great time and offering my wife and I a relaxing afternoon. Only a few dollars to enter and will worth it.

This is a nice campground right on the lake. They have nice bathrooms and a playground for the kids. There is a marina where you can get your basic camping gear and lots of fishing gear.They have some nice cabins for rent if tents are not your thing and you do not have a camper.The hill down to the marina is steep. Just a warning. But the folks down there are very nice and helpful.

Overlook park is a fantastic place to hangout with family or quick getaway. Beautiful sunsets/sunrises. Popular boating place. Our 4 yearold twins loved it. They caught 12 fish, my husband caught 4 and I caught 1. We love outdoor sports and adventure. They have several different places to stay.. cabins, tent sites, RV sites, and basic mosquito/ bug stand alone. We had 2 cabins with such a large group and had plenty of space for 7 adults and 5 kids. Our 1 and only request would be to upgrade the well water filtration system. The cabin we stayed in, the smell of the shower and sinks were overwhelming. We ended up using our friends cabin because it only had a faint smell. I have been around well water all my life and havent smelled bad water like that in a long time.

Easter Sunday two got after my nieces 6month old Shep/Pit mix while she was standing just along the bank but feet in the water..My niece was fishing happened to turn around check on her pup seen the gar coming..So watch your pups other than that its a beautiful place and we enjoyed it

My first trip to Lake Summerville was so much fun. From catching a couple of fish with my awesome man and baby to the very cool floating marina. I had a blast adventuring and enjoying this park. Plus the bathrooms were fairly clean with no giant spiders in sight.

I know that lake sommerville flooded and the park has been underwater but when they charge you $20 for a day pass and cant tell you a good place to hang out for the day its a little frustrating, I know everything is still flooded and it would have been nice to know that all the sites were still underwater and there really wasnt anyplace that could be used as a beach or a safe place to play.
