Soap Lake has 2 public parks on the lake, this one is on the East shore on Highway 17 between Smokiam Campground and B&B Restaurant. There is a bath house, Beach Access, Picnic Tables and a huge Bronze & Basalt Sundial. It’s a great place to stop and play or even plaster yourself in the healing mud from the lake. Swimming is easy as you float easier because of all the minerals in the water. We made a specific trip here during our vacation. Daughter and her kids played in the healing waters while wife read a book in the shade and I took the nap I really needed. Unfortunately, I took too long of a nap and missed laying in the water :(I guess I’ll have to go back next year. This is the 3rd time we’ve come here and it is always worth a repeat visit when you are in the area.
