DAR State Park

Description: From their Website: "There are 70 sites including 24 lean-tos located in an open grassy area, as well as under a mature stand of hickory trees. There are flush toilets, hot showers ($), and a dump station provided. There is a small picnic area located on a bluff above the lake, as well as a nice stone pavilion/picnic shelter for group gatherings. Boating, fishing, sailing, and swimming are popular in Lake Champlain."

Local attractions include the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, Chimney Point, Fort Ticonderoga, Shelburne Museum and the Morgan Horse Farm in Middlebury. And this little known trivia fact: DAR State Park was the site for the movie "What Lies Beneath," with Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer.
