Raymer's Cove

"It was such a nice place to visit! This was my first time visiting, and i really enjoyed the whole experience. When i got there at the beach, there was nobody around, so i was sitting in peaceful silence. But there are people who pass and stay on the beach, so it’s a social beach, but they come and go. Everyone is nice and won’t bother you for being on the beach. I wouldn’t recommend coming when it’s raining because the paths are really muddy. There was a bunch of little paths you can go on and explore, and overall it was enjoyable!"

"Great nature hike. Hidden away gem right in the middle of Madison. Small parking lot but we still found a spot. We hiked late afternoon and finished at dusk late fall so we didn’t have to worry about mosquitoes as other reviews mentioned. Beautiful lake views. A little bit of rough ground and stairs to climb, keep that in mind if you’re going with small children or need handicap accessible hike. For our family it t was perfect though."

"There is only space for 5 or 6 cars to park at this spot, but we got there before 10 a.m. and found one. We hiked from Raymer's Cove to Picnic Point and back for a total of 5 km. The trail is a little uneven with lots of roots in the first third. Then it turns sandy when it is right next to the water and eventually is hard-packed fine gravel on the peninsula to the point. Wonderful views throughout, and not too busy even on a holiday weekend."
