Boaters, campers, fishermen, hunters and naturalists all use Milford State Park, which rests in the middle of an 18,000-acre wildlife area operated by the Kansas Dept. of Wildlife Parks. The park covers 1,084 acres and provides access to the state's largest lake.
Naturalists enjoy five short trails, ranging from 1/4-mile to 8 miles long. Biking is permitted on the trails. The 8-mile trail is designated mostly for horses.
Anglers fish for crappie, walleye, wiper and white and largemouth bass. Ice fishing at Curtis Creek often yields crappie.
The Milford Wildlife Area is home to quail, pheasant, wild turkey, deer, doves, coyotes, cottontail rabbits, prairie chickens, ducks and geese - all pursued by hunters and wildlife-watchers alike. A wildlife observation tower is available on the 1/4-mile trail in the State Park.
Facilities include 200 campsites, 10 boat ramp lanes, a marina, and a yacht club.
