Waterfront Park
Waterfront Park is set on Murtaugh Lake east of Twin Falls. It is an older park with mature trees and lawn. It has been "purchased" by Twin Falls County and they have started repairing and expanding it. There are new mooring and launch docks as well as a water wall to prevent erosion.

There is a vault style outhouse at the park which was clean and well stocked at the time of our visit.
