Nestled in Norton, Kansas, Prairie Dog State Park boasts a unique lakeshore beach that offers a serene escape into nature. While it might not have the vast expanses of sandy beaches that oceanfront parks do, the sandy shores here provide a tranquil setting for visitors to relax and enjoy the great outdoors. Activities at the beach include picnicking, sunbathing, and bird watching, providing a variety of ways for visitors to engage with the natural beauty of the area. Despite its charm, Prairie Dog State Park has few amenities, so plan your trip accordingly, although it does allow for fishing and has boat launch facilities for those looking to explore the waters.
