Imagine yourself sitting on the beach, except it's nice and quiet, other than the wind in the trees and the splash of people in the lake. Oh wait, you're not at the beach, you're in Kansas!

This is Big Hill Lake, a spot near Cherryvale, Kansas that you might have never heard of at all.

Here at the lake, there are beautiful rock outcroppings, places to fish, and much more. Even finding wildlife to photograph or enjoying a nice camping experience can make your trip memories last forever.

Of course, part of enjoying a beach requires at least a little sand. There's plenty here to build a sandcastle, or to cover your friends with!

Swimming, boating, and kayaking are great ways to enjoy the water when you're done sunbathing or building a castle.

Also at the lake is the Big Hill Lake Horse Trail, which is 17 miles long and beautiful if you have the time to travel it. There are tethering areas, three parking areas, and overnight camping spots for trail riders.

Whether your adventure is solely on the beach or for the whole wildlife area, we think you'll have fun here.

If you know of great places in Kansas that make for wonderful destinations, we’d love to hear about them. Send information to our nomination page or comment on Facebook!
