A number of small creeks flow through the park which provide opportunities for canoeing and viewing waterfowl, though over the past 10 years[when?] the inlet and creeks that dominate the park have mostly dried up.[citation needed] The park has four campgrounds: Boosey Creek, Highlands, Middle Creek and Two Creeks, offering both electrical and non-electrical campsites as well as group camping and radio-free camping.[3]
