North Wheeler Recreation Area

This small, quiet park is a great get-away for those seeking to relax. And, if your idea of relaxation involves a fishing pole, North Wheeler aims to please. With lake access between Pease Creek and Platte Creek, visitors can spend their days on the water and their night relaxing in the campground. A family gets ready to take their toddler out for his first boat ride on their pontoon at North Wheeler.
