Restrooms
Not confirmed
Not confirmed. A park with a public swimming beach almost certainly has them, but we have not checked, and whether they open outside the beach season is the part that matters.
The largest municipal park in the county, built around a 140-acre reservoir dug in 1972 to supply Oakland and opened to recreation three years later. A sandy beach and swimming area, several playgrounds, ball fields, trails, and pavilions you can rent. It is the closest thing Garrett County has to a public lake beach that isn't a state park.
