Probably the most unique aspect of the State Park is the fact that a private residential community
is located inside the park's boarders.
Those developers who began the project as a private enterprise worked out an arrangement
with the Office of State Parks to retain land within the park for private residential development.
Private residents use an electronic card to gain access to their property at any time of the day or night.
"It was a big step for the parks department to get involved in something like this," Taylor said.
"There have been a lot of details to work out with developers and the homeowners and the public
as far as planning facilities and issuing access permits and those sorts of things.
But every-thing has worked out very well and this facility is something the state can be proud of."
