Take a hike

Check out the water park
The water park in Harrison is unlike any other. Take a lift by boat out to the park which is situated in the lake. It has a number of inflatable “obstacles,” similar to something you would see from the hit TV show Wipeout. Of course there are tons of water slides and platforms you can be catapulted off of and fly into the water.
Enjoy water sports and activities
Besides the water park, there are plenty of activities you can enjoy at Harrison Lake. Rent out a sea-doo, bumper boats, banana tubes, kayaks, motor boats, paddle boards or bring your own.
