Well-known for quality water-based recreation, Bonny Lake State Park is a
pleasant combination of modern facilities and large expanses of prairie and
riparian open space.
An oasis on the plains, Bonny Lake State Park offers a welcome change from the
rolling prairie and grasslands that surround the park. Nestled in the broad
valley of the South Fork of the Republican River, at an elevation of 3,700 feet,
Bonny Lake State Park has colorful vistas in the fall and a variety of
year-round recreational opportunities. Enjoy camping, hunting, hiking,
picnicking and wildlife viewing at Bonny Lake State Park. Fishing is excellent
on this 1,900 surface-acre reservoir. Walleye, northern pike and a variety of
bass are just some of the fish that inhabit the reservoir. With seasonably warm
waters, dependable winds and sandy beaches, Bonny Lake State Park is the perfect
destination for swimmers, water-skiers and wind-surfers.
