Fort Massac State Park

Description

Actual re-creations of pioneer life of the 1700s during the annual Fort Massac Encampment and several living history weekends each year bring the past to life, letting you experience it yourself. With all this, and the picnicking, camping, hiking, boating and hunting opportunities available in the rest of the 1,450-acre area, Fort Massac State Park is an alluring, complete and self-contained family vacation spot. Boating and fishing are permitted on and along the Ohio River. There are 50 Class A vehicular campsites with electricity, a disposal station and a shower building, tent camping, and a separate group campground. Anglers will find bullhead, carp, catfish, crappie, drum and largemouth bass. The boat dock and launch ramp are now open to the public.
