The state's most heavily stocked lake, 3,050-acre Taylorsville Lake, yields bass, bluegill and hybrid stripers. The lake also attracts water recreationists, from paddlers to water-skiers.
Taylorsville Lake State Park is noted for 16 miles of trails shared by hikers, mountain bikers and equestrians. The paths wind through forest, along ridges, and into bottomlands, which together make up the park's 1,625 acres.
Visitors watch for resident deer, coyotes and foxes from a designated wildlife-viewing area. The lake hosts a large variety of waterfowl. Though there is no hunting permitted in the park, it does serve as base for hunters pursuing their sport in adjacent wildlife management areas.
This park boasts a spacious, new campground that has 45 RV sites with water and electric hookups, 15 primitive sites and several horse trailer campsites.
Park facilities also include a marina with 38 open and 144 covered slips, fishing boat rentals and four launch ramps.
