A 9-hectare kettle lake, Pinehurst Lake, was formed by a single sheet of ice. In the winter, Pinehurst is known for excellent snowshoeing and ice fishing; in the summer, for radio-free camping (including group camping), swimming, fishing and boating. The sandy beach is unpatrolled. Popular fish include sunfish, largemouth bass, bluegill and black crappie. Paddleboats and canoes may be rented from May to August; motorized boats are not permitted. There are 400 picnic tables in the area (recycle and garbage containers are also present), as well as flush toilets and coin-operated showers. The area also features approximately 20km of hiking and cycling trails.
