The William Houck section  contains access to the South Beach's sandy shores and swimming area. There are also lots of woofderful camping spots to be had near the beach as well. Though Fido is not permitted access to the beach from Memorial Day through Labor Day, he is more than welcome at all other times of year, and he can freely enjoy all of the on-premise trails year-round. This beach and park observes seasonal hours, and is open April - October from 8 AM until sunset, and November - March from 10 AM until sunset.
