Went to kayak for the day. Had to pay $10 admission and $10 to have my kayak inspected. Inspector was not a friendly guy.Would recommend for rentals, but not for using your own equipment unless you live close by or have small children. Takes about 10-15 minutes to paddle across the lake for an adult.
Plenty of upsides nice beach, modern amenities, pleasant staff, very clean water. Some might think lack of shade is an issue, there are some trees but that space probably fills up fast. Beach can be crowded, for the most part people are friendly. Great for paddle boarding as the water is very calm.
We visited this little lakeside park on a holiday weekend and found that there was plenty of room for everyone! The park was clean, children were having fun, boats available for rent too! For a fun summer day - kids and adults alike will enjoy this park!
Has a good swim beach. Can get a little busy. Snack bar has great items at low cost. Fishing is pretty good.
Last year I commented on the issue of goose poop on the beach. I don't think the geese have been trained to drop their droppings somewhere else so kudos to whom ever is responsible for cleaning up the beach. Last year I was critical about the condition of the beach so I was pleased to see the beach was very clean this year. As far as the remainder of the park and personnel nothing has changed, all I can say is "Top Shelf." A great place to bring the family.
I brought my daughter and her friend out here to enjoy a hot summer day out by the water. I was pleasantly surprised! The swim beach was nice, the paddleboarding and paddle boats were fun and not too expensive! They have a concession stand, playground, lots of sand for sports and lots of picnic areas to bring your own food/drinks. We will definitely be coming back.
The fishing is very good and if you're into birding, the location is great. It has a $10.00 entrance fee and an annual fee that is close to $48.00. However, if you live near by it is worth doing.
Nice place to escape the City and spend the day on the water boating and fishing, or biking around the lake.Dogs are welcome on leash. Would like to see an off-leash dog area.
Great place to go...Top quality fish in an urban setting.Nice swin beach.Usually a no wait for boat loading and launching.Quick boat inspections.
good picnic areas, walking & biking paths. Clean. has an amazing amount of birds. scenic. if youre interested, and live in the area, and just want to walk, take the southwest residential route and get in free(walk right thru the gate during reg operating hours
