Sun Lakes State Park in the Coulee Corridor

Fancy some traditional recreation after your geology lesson? As you leave Dry Falls Interpretive Center going south on Highway 17, you will descend down into the coulee. On the right in the layers of basalt, you can see a fault line where tectonic plate movement is apparent. On the left you will see a golf course, campground and park at the north end of Park Lake. There is also miniature golf (a really nice new installation terraced on the hillside), paddle boat rentals, snack bar, gift shop, swimming, docks, fishing, cabins, and all kinds of fun stuff. The Ping family has been operating this park concession for a number of years, and has made many improvements.
