Located in windy south central Kansas, 9,500-acre Cheney Reservoir is one of the finest sailing lakes in the United States. Several national sailing regattas are held here, including national championships.
There's excellent fishing for crappie, channel catfish, white bass, stripers, wipers and walleye. Two fishing complexes, with fishing pier, brushpile fish attractors for crappie, and a fish feeder attractor for channel catfish, have been developed to enhance the sport.
The 5,250-acre wildlife area is known for good hunting and wildlife watching. Pheasant, quail, rabbit, waterfowl, dove, deer, turkey, raccoon, red fox, beaver and bobcat are common. Ducks, geese and shorebirds inhabit the waterfowl refuge.
The park has two nature trails. Park facilities include 204 modern utility campsites, 300 modern non-utility campsites, seven furnished cabins, 22 boat launching lanes and a marina.
