The park opened in 1962 and has undergone many changes and additions through the years. The park's wonderful accommodations feature 40 lodge rooms and 17, 2-bedroom cottages. All of these sit conveniently around the great park activities. The lodge rooms all overlook the lake and have private balconies or patios. Our cottages come fully stocked, and provide perfect group accommodations for almost every type event. If you are looking for delicious food and a great atmosphere, look no further than our Grayson's Landing Restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner during peak season months. The restaurant also overlooks the beautiful rippling water of Rough River Lake. Enjoy your favorite glass of wine, beer, or cocktail with your meal, easily acquired by our helpful servers. During the height of the season, buffets are available. On most Friday nights thru the summer, music floats through the air, and patio dining is available for our Concert in the Park Series. These free concerts are open to the public, and lawn seating is optional. There are courtesy docks for boaters interested in dining with us. Groups of all sizes have a home here at Rough River Dam State Resort Park.
