This 2,337-acre resort park features a modern lodge, cottages, campground, golf course, swimming beach and boating for outdoor enthusiasts.

This venue offers courses that are mostly flat and fast with some rolling hills on the bike. Triathletes will be swimming along the beach in Deer Creek Lake. Duathlete's opening run is out and back featuring a run across the Deer Creek dam levy. So, don't forget your cross country legs. The bike courses are on mostly local country roads.

The run course is almost completely flat but does require extra effort when crossing the grass-covered levy. This race is a perfect first race of the season to get you ready for an exciting season of racing.
