About Lake Erie State Park

Lake Erie State Park sits on high bluffs above the shallowest of the Great Lakes, northeast of Brocton in Chautauqua County, with more than three quarters of a mile of shoreline. Its 355 acres hold about 100 campsites and 10 cabins, picnic shelters, playgrounds and hiking trails that are used for cross-country skiing in winter. The lake edge draws rare migrating birds, and the Shipwreck Bluff disc golf course opened in 2015. The park is open year-round for day use, and the vehicle fee is $7 on fee days.
