    There are three lakes here that you can fish from. Trails to the Platte river you can walk/bike all over. Doggos are welcome. There are bathrooms. There are a couple docks and a gazebo area. There are also some benches near the lakes.

    Nice little park with two docks, two gazebos, a few benches, and some bathrooms. Leads to the South Platte trail. Great place to start a bike ride to Denver.

    Blue skies, white snow, sparkling running creeks, and the Rocky Mtns for the back drop. Thank you GOD, for the perfection of this time.

    I go here for short walks. It's an open space and has port-a-pottys. Can fish here as well.

    An oasis of nature in the suburbs. I had a delightful fall day to walk around the lake and on the Platte River. Good job Adams County for keeping some excellent open space for the community to enjoy.

    It's a nice jumping off point to ride bikes along the South Platte.

  • 5/5 Gena T. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to go fishing and just relax. Beautiful trails and wildlife. Bald eagles nest close by.

  • 5/5 Donna L. 1 year ago on Google
    Love walking all the trails. Always meet nice people and friendly dogs. A whole lot of nature right here in the city.

  • 4/5 Carol B. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful park. But, what is the reasoning behind only being able to make a right turn into and out of the parking?

  • 3/5 OurFamilyOf T. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful scenery so close to home but have yet to have any luck catching any fish here multiple times!

  • 4/5 Samy N. 2 years ago on Google
    I love the view of the lake around the dawn and dusk times especially from the deck. The only downside is the abundance of mosquitoes and other flies makes the walk, or any other sports activity much less desirable. Also please don't attempt to make it to the lake by making a left heading east on 104th as there's no middle lane. Cars will honk at you and you'll risk an accident. You'll have to be heading west on 104th and make a right to go into the parking lot.

    It is a nice park quite and clean. Has concrete path, and a lake I don't know if you can fish or not! There are picnic table one has an cover but has metal bracket sticking out of the ground so be careful easy to forget thier there. Has two bathrooms one is handicap accessible. Lots of wild life very nice to see. No lights it is dark and I mean dark. Didn't see a playground. If you are driving east you can't make a left hand turn.

    First time walking my dog here. It's a very nice park and very clean. I really like how the trail is set up with the majority of it being gravel instead of concrete. I only went around one of the lakes there. I'm looking forward to going around the other one and through the other paths they have there.

    Beautiful open space, nice paths to walk. We did our family pics here and there were plenty of beautiful spots to take pics.

  • 5/5 Phillip M. 3 years ago on Google

👍 My friend and I jokingly renamed the park as Lily Pad Park and Lake of the Lilies because well…that’s all that you’ll see on the water these days! An occasional crane or a few ducks and geese. My family loves to kayak here (beginners and it’s easier on steady water when you’re new) and it makes it n...
