Amenities include a 6.8 mile hiking trail, a boat ramp, and a screened picnic pavilion. Bulow Creek is recognized as a State Canoe Trail. A scenic walking trail leads visitors to the sugar mill ruins, which are listed on the National Register of Historic Sites. The park is open from 8:00 am till sundown year round.
