Fishing
The easiest access points for fishing is from the main parking area off Morse Lake Rd, south of 100th St SE. There’s also space available for parking on the road shoulder on the south side of 100th St just west of the intersection with Morse Lake Rd. The park itself extends about a quarter mile west of the intersection along 100th St, so fishers can walk along the river bank for some distance before reaching private property. For a better understanding of park limits, please see the park map.
Picnicking
While fishing is the main attraction, Coldwater River Park also offers several picnic tables along the riverside and restroom facilities. Both are located at the parking area off Morse Lake Road, south of 100th St.
