    Had the pleasant opportunity of getting to spend time here (early November). It is a decent size park with not too much spread in between activities available. Trail - The trail took me about 10 minutes to walk with stops taking photos. It makes a "loop" if you cut across the basketball court. It also has a tennis court and a small pier with excellent views of water, foliage, and sky. Definitely recommend!

    Beautiful park with a nice lake. In summer the lake is covered with white water lilies. The sight is awesome. I haven’t seen any fish here. Watch for bugs in the evening, in summer. There is a rather small, free parking lot near by. Great for short, easy walks.

    NOT A SWIMMING LAKE! The park is very nice. They have slides and jungle gym for the kids, and a fishing pier. The County just installed a water trail- you take your kayak or canoe, and paddle around to different stations to learn about the wildlife in the lake and surrounding areas. Awesome idea!

    This is a beautiful place to walk at sunset, the dock is a nice quiet spot, you feel like your in another part of the country; or by the beach.

    One of the best hidden gems between Spotswood & East Brunswick. Come here to enjoy the basketball, tennis court and walk by the bridge at the lake.

    Man, I love this park. I tripped over it driving around at the right time. It’s a beautiful picturesque park with a nice playground if you have young children. You can enjoy the view and take pictures while your kids wear themselves from playing. This place is a new favorite of mine and I definitely will be returning. I hope to make this my children’s choice playground.

    This is a small park with a playground for kids and a lovely view of the lake. There is a pier that many people fish from, and a basketball court a little to the side. Plenty of parking space. Across the lake is much larger Jamesburg Park with hiking trails.

    It's a cute little park with a playground for the kids and a nice little path partially around the lake and into some woods. Not very big but set up nice. There's a dirt ramp for launching a canoe, kayak, or rowboat. And there's a dock you can walk out on to.

    Nice park, pretty quiet, a bit of gnats and mosquitoes though.

    Kayak,canoe,and inflatable ok,but my suggestion,paddles only. Most likely more fish in your local shoprite than in this whole water system. Deepest section probably no more than waste high.

    Small peaceful place to reflect. Great for short hikes.

    Small park with a big personality. Not too well known which makes it a quite getaway from the rest of the area. It has a playground for kid with beautiful view of the lake. There is a pier that you can fish from, and a basketball court a little to the side. There is a pavilion that you can eat, you can also launch small boats there. Across the lake is much larger Jamesburg Park with hiking trails.
