It sits within the Reservoir State Park land unit, making it an easy stop for anyone already in the Niagara area. Late spring through early fall is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Niagara Falls weather station run from highs around 69°F in May to about 82°F in July, with September still near 74°F and fewer wet days than the winter months.
