“a haunted state park”

Lums Pond State Park is built around the largest freshwater pond in Delaware. The park features excellent camping, fishing, sports facilities, hiking trails, and an unforgettable Go Ape! Treetop Adventure Course featuring rope ladders, treetop crossings, Tarzan swings and 5 zip lines — four of them over water! Lums Pond itself covers 200 acres, and although there is no swimming allowed, boat rentals and fishing provide water-bound recreation. A boat launching ramp and two piers allow easy access to the water. The park is haunted by the ghost of a girl who was murdered here in 1970. Screams for help can be heard coming from the woods, just off the hiking trail.

Stayed for a quick overnight trip. Sites were huge and all paved. Very nice campground and very clean. Wish we could have stayed longer. Make sure you navigate to the campground and not the park.
