    Raymer's Cove was once a popular swimming spot for Madisonians. Although swimming is not allowed due to erosion and water quality concerns, there are still plenty of activities to enjoy at Rhymer's Cove. Picnicking, birdwatching, and kayaking are all popular options.

    Hiking

    Stairs leading down to the cove is a bit slick when it’s been raining. Also the slope on the other side is quite slick with mud. Manageable with caution.
