    Beautiful park in St Clair shores. Lake view is amazing... 3 out of 5 stars is because its a resident only park. Even if you are willing to pay a million $, you can't get in unless you are a resident. Horrible!

    This park is cool. Since living here, I wait until October 31st when it's free to use. Even in the winter, I enjoy walking around, getting some exercise, and taking in a view of the lake. It's well-maintained and a great place to walk, clear your head, and get some exercise.

    Lovely park with a walking track 5/8 of a mile around. 8 laps makes 5 miles. Several benches to look out over the water. Small beach which has been closed for years. Lots of pollution in that lake with sewage drain off. Very disappointing metro Detroit and Canada dump into this large lake. Very pretty lake views. In the summer, the city puts on Wednesday evening concerts. LOTS of people show up.

    This is a beautiful Veterans memorial park! The only thing that detracts from it at all, is the feces from the seagulls. But it's hard to control nature. (I saw workers trying to chase them away. So I feel they're doing what they can.) I'll definitely go again!

    Great park! So many things to do with the kids. They had food trucks available. Beach area was very relaxing and water was great. Fireworks were awesome!

    I just did a.belly dancing show here for the Cancer Survivor walk. Very nice and I will definitely be back next year. It's a beautiful park too bad you have to be a St Claire Shores resident to come here.

    It was awesome. Beautiful, clean, well maintained. We had a wonderful family reunion today. I would recommend this park to everyone. This place is great for families, kids, young couples, and older people and seniors too. Just so scenery and almost beauty. I wish I lived closer. Only one thing you need to get rid of the red ankle feet leg punchy biting bugs. Seems like they come out of the grass. PLease! Thanks

    Kids had fun at the splash pad. It is small so it can get pretty crowded. They also played on the playground and we took a walk by the water. Such a shame the beach is often closed.

    This place is always very clean, they are decently careful about who enters. And are pretty good about keeping the trash picked up. Other than the litter free grounds, they have the splash pad, playground equipment, pavilions, and different plaques around the park citing dedications, and informative information. The waterfront is outstanding, there is a lot of it, and it's always a nice cool breeze, with just the slightest wind. There are a bit of bird droppings pretty much all over the place. However, it's on the water, not too much you can really do about that. The staff interactions I've had there, have always been pleasant. It's also near really good dining places. I totally recommend this place to anyone able to be granted access. Whether going here to reflect, meditate, relax, fish, bird watch, boat watch, pavilion rental for party's, splash pad, swimming, playground, or even a slow walk with a loved one around the water, this is a place to go. I will continue to frequent this place. You should as well!

    Nice little park to hang out at in the neighborhood, which includes a kids play ground, a BBQ grill and a few tables to sit on.

    I went there for a concert and it was absolutely beautiful. They had food trucks but the lines were too long. And they had parking across the street so many people.

  • 5/5 Dawn W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great clean park and family friendly! Lots of space so never feels crowded. Picnic areas, fishing, walking path and exercise equipment.

    Great place except the bacteria that closes the beach year after year after year. The polluted water is shame. Our greatest natural resource can't be used which is sickening how we have contaminated these waters. Just my opinion

    I walk here almost every morning. The views are great and it's never too busy. My daughter loves the splash pad in the summer. I love this park!

  • 5/5 Christina V. 4 years ago on Google
    Pretty great place even if you want to sight see. Found 4 baby ferrets, and a 🐢 chillen on a rock. I use to go here when I was a child for my family reunions, it's changed a lot. Not necessarily in a bad way.

    Wonderfully kept park, beautiful views, ducks, geese, benches, picnic tables, sunsets, sunrises, music pavilion and lush grass. It also has a splash park for children.

  • 5/5 albana d. 5 years ago on Google
    It's very nicely kept. The views of the lake are amazing. It's a great park for a picnic, walking or even fishing. Only thing that is annoying is that u have to park across the street from the park.

    Beautiful park that house is a brand new playground and splash pad area for kids, public restrooms, short walk paths, and small beach area! The grounds are used on Wednesdays during the summer for music on the lake which attracts a great crowd for some awesome local bands and food trucks!

    Clean, partly wooded, spacious park. Kid friendly, splash pad, slides and swings. Great for picnics. Right by the water, good for walks. Has a mini beach too. Parking is across the street.
