Big Creek State Park offers five modern boat ramps (three on the west side, two on the east) providing excellent access to Big Creek Lake, with a universal accessible fishing pier on the east side featuring a 250-foot concrete path and adjacent accessible vault toilet.

The park's concession stand operates mid-April to mid-October and rents kayaks, canoes, paddle boats, pontoons, sailboats, and stand-up paddleboards, along with bait and tackle for anglers.

Paved multi-use trails connect the park to the 27-mile Neal Smith Trail system, and the lake operates under a 5 mph no-wake rule for all motors.
