Shakamak State Park — photo spot in 6265 IN-48, Jasonville, IN 47438, USA


Shakamak State Park
Score4.5Three glacial lakes set in pine and hardwood forest with CCC-era structures, boardwalks, beaches and hiking trails — ideal for reflective waterscapes, woodland details, seasonal color and starry nightscapes. Visit at sunrise or golden hour for calm water and warm light; fall offers best foliage. Park has vehicle entry fees and picnic/parking areas near lakes; trails and shorelines are accessible but bring bug spray in summer. Weekdays and early mornings minimize crowds.
