Buckeye Falls Drive from Highbanks Drive to the Sharon Woods Golf Course Parking Lot is open for vehicular access from dawn to 4:30 p.m. daily. Intermittent and infrequent daily closures are expected through February 2026 to allow for final Sharon Lake dredge and Sharon Lake trail construction tasks to be completed. Kreis Dam remains closed to pedestrian access.
Ongoing: Due to construction of the Sharon Lake draining and dredging project, park facilities will close beginning April 1, 2024: Sharon Lake, including the fishing dock and canoe/kayak launch, Boathouse, Shared-Use Trail around the lake, Lakeside Lodge reservable shelter & adjacent parking lot on Kemper Road and the Upper Gorge parking lot near Kreis Dam.
Construction for the Sharon Woods Drive Bridge Stream and Sanitary Sewer Modification Project will begin on January 5 and continue through spring. The bridge will remain open to vehicles and pedestrians; however, access to the stream under the bridge will be restricted, and the nearby trail will have a short-signed detour onto the park road. Construction traffic and equipment will be present in the area during this time.
