Prairie View Lake Recreation Area is mainly all lake, but you will find parking, boat launch, picnic shelters, a small island (accessible by bridge), and a bathroom at the place.
The bathroom is not modern, but has been fairly clean on our visits here
There is a crushed gravel trail circling Prairie View Lake, fine for walking, but maybe not quite as fine for bicycles.
Most of the trail is without shade, and the little tiny bit of shade offered at this bridge is welcome, and makes for an ideal place to stop and cool off if you are making the trail circuit of the lake.
Prairie View Lake Recreation Area should be a pleasing experience if you are looking for a nice walk, about 1 1/3 miles once around the lake. If you are making a clockwise walk, you should reach the above bridge (the 2nd bridge on the trail) about 3/4 into your walk.
Don’t forget to bring something to drink, especially in the summertime.
Keep in mind that Prairie Rose Lake and Prairie View Lake are two different places.
the lake is awesome for bass fishing
