About this swimming hole
Meade State Park marks off a swimming beach on its lake in southwest Kansas, a welcome rarity in the High Plains country. The KDWP park brochure explicitly designates the marked swimming area, so this is an official swim spot rather than a free-for-all shoreline. It is one of the few real public swim beaches west of Dodge City.
