    It's always fun to stop by Lake Glendale. You can take a little spree to Lake Glendale Dam while you're here at Lake Glendale, and there's whitewater on Lusk Creek for all you adrenaline rush seekers. This lake is so wonderful. There are plenty of people from Paducah here at Lake Glendale, and since you're here you can take a hike along the River to River Trail. If you came to camp Duck Bay Campground is a splendid place to do that, and Super 8 Motel - Metropolis  
   is a great location to get some rest.
Don't you try to stop me, cause I'm havin' a great time here at Lake Glendale. There's so much to do here at Lake Glendale that you need to camp here for a while, Oak Point Campground is a brilliant site for that; if you get bored of Lake Glendale you could also visit nearby Sugar Creek Lake. Dixon Springs is a stunning site to go to while you're at Lake Glendale, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if
 
               it's for you then, we recommend Bear Branch. At Lake Glendale during the warm months highs are in the 80's. Once the sun is down it plunges down to the 60's. The winter brings highs down to the 30's with temperatures at Lake Glendale dipping down into the 10's during winter nights.
This lake is so wonderful. A lake nearby is Simpson Lake. If you need a spot to stay Comfort Inn Metropolis is a great choice; going for a hike along the River to River Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this area. Lake Glendale sees pretty high levels of precipitation; the month of March is the wettest with most of the rain while January is the month with the least amount of precipitation.

Buck Ridge Campground
17 miles away
Buck Ridge Campground was closed in 2007 and I'm very upset to see that happen. The area is depressed and could really benefit from this wonderful campground. You can still hike in but we will miss our trips and the wonderful memories that awaited us. I'm truly upset about this loss. The park is gorgeous. I hope to see an outpouring of requests to reopen this national treasure....
