The dam which forms the El Dorado Reservoir at El Dorado State Park was built by the United
States Army Corps of Engineers. We have been very conscientious about avoiding large crowds,
so we hiked to the park's sandy beach and swimming area to see if maintaining social distance
would be possible. Good news! All family groups in the swimming area, on the beach and on
the large grassy lawn seemed to be keeping their distance from each other as we had hoped.

What is your favorite way to spend your time in state parks?
We made our way to the beach at El Dorado State Park on the first evening of our stay. The
sandy
beach was definitely inviting (as were the covered picnic tables). It was the water, however, that
was really calling our name. The next day was supposed to be rather warm, so we planned to
cool
off after doing some morning sightseeing. (More on what happened tomorrow ... our plan didn't
quite go as we had hoped!)
How would you spend your time at a state park that has a lake?
