It appears that there is a discrepancy in the prompt, as Roland Cooper State Park is actually located in Alabama, not Indiana.

Roland Cooper State Park is a 236-acre park located on the shores of Alabama's 22,000-acre Dannelly Reservoir. Visitors can enjoy outdoor activities such as fishing, boating, hiking, and camping. The park features a modern campground with 47 campsites, as well as several picnic areas and pavilions.

The main attraction at Roland Cooper State Park is the Dannelly Reservoir, which offers excellent fishing opportunities for bass, catfish, crappie, and bream. The park also has a boat ramp and fishing pier for visitors to use.

Hiking enthusiasts will enjoy the 2-mile-long Lakeside Trail, which winds through the park's wooded areas and along the shoreline of the Dannelly Reservoir. The trail offers scenic views of the lake and is a great spot for birdwatching.

One interesting fact about Roland Cooper State Park is that it was named after Roland Cooper, a former Alabama Power Company executive who played a key role in the construction of the Dannelly Reservoir and the surrounding park.

The best time of year to visit Roland Cooper State Park is during the spring and fall months, when temperatures are mild and the foliage is at its peak. Summer can be hot and muggy, while winter can be chilly and rainy.

Overall, Roland Cooper State Park is a great destination for anyone looking to enjoy outdoor activities in a beautiful natural setting.
