About Cowan Lake State Park
Cowan Lake State Park offers a peaceful setting complete with scenic inlets laden with the American Lotus water lily. Swimming, fishing, sailing, kayaking and canoeing are popular on the lake.
Meandering trails through mature woodlands complement the natural features of this scenic 1,775-acre park.
