Gilbert Lake State Park
About
Gilbert Lake State Park in Laurens, Otsego County, offers outdoor recreation all year. The park is built around Gilbert Lake, which draws anglers for its trout and for some impressive largemouth bass, and its trails, campsites and water access fill out the rest of the visit.
Beyond fishing, the park is set up for swimming, boating, hiking, biking and camping, and winter brings ice fishing and other cold-weather activities. It is also pet friendly. An entrance fee may apply, so plan on that when budgeting a day trip.
