Located on Lake Tillery, this facility serves as the rowboat and canoe launch for the park. The design of the facility drew upon the rich history of the park, as well as its scenic opportunity. Existing stonework was reused and juxtaposed with new glulam structure to create a transition point on the lake. The rental shop, launch zone, and boat storage areas are all nestled in a large open area under a standing seam metal roof.
