Updated Information about Ongoing Construction at Henry Horton State Park

Henry Horton State Park is undergoing exciting improvements, including the construction of our new lodge and accessibility enhancements throughout the park. As these projects progress, visitors should anticipate temporary changes to traffic patterns, parking, and access to certain areas of the park

Visitor Safety and Construction Areas: 

• Construction zones will be marked with fencing, caution tape, barricades, and signage. Visitors are asked to remain outside designated construction areas and use caution around workers, equipment, and potential debris.

Traffic Changes & Detours:

• Guests traveling to the Visitor Center, Restaurant, Cabins, Picnic Shelters, and Conference Hall may encounter modified traffic patterns, parking adjustments, and clearly marked detour routes. Traffic flow near the new Lodge construction site, Visitor Center, and day-use parking areas has also been adjusted.

Important Reminders:

• Some park facilities, roads, trails, campsites, and river access points may be temporarily closed or have limited access.
• Follow all posted DETOUR, ROAD CLOSURE, and CONSTRUCTION signs.
• Drive slowly and remain alert for pedestrians, construction workers, and equipment.
• Expect occasional construction noise throughout the day.
• Allow additional travel time when visiting the park.

These improvements represent an exciting investment in the future of Henry Horton State Park, helping us create a more accessible, welcoming, and enjoyable experience for all visitors.
