The parking is off the street so your vehicle is safe and secure while you have all the fun you can stand. Bring your someone special and enjoy the view from the overlook terraces at twilight. It is spectacular. The restrooms are clean and modern as well so there is nothing to spoil the fun of a day at Gray's Lake.
