The lake boasts a submerged airplane cabin, which appears to be an old piece of an American Airlines crew trainer. You can swim through it and even see the cockpit. At the other end of the lake is an enormous replica of a shark which appears to be made from an old storage tank. The shark is hollow and you can swim in the mouth and out the tail.
The lake is very busy with dozens of divers submerged throughout the summer, most of whom are doing certification dives with Dallas-area dive shops. Scuba Toys has their own pavillion, while many other dive shops set up temporarily at the various other pavillions. There are RV hookups and plenty of space for tent camping.
Ammenities are basic, but good. Air is available for $8 per 3000psi tank and warm showers are complimentary. There are picnic tables at some of the pavillions, but you'll need to bring your own fuel.
Overall, a pleasant operation though the diving conditions are only slightly better than most of the area mud-holes and not reflective of the name.
