Beautiful views of the lake and a nice little walking trail, but you’ll need to do like 3 laps or more if you’re actually planning on doing a workout here. More for a laidback day with family rather than actual hiking/running/biking.

4/5 bc of all the goose poop, hard to control geese so understandable. The e coli level was high some of the summer b/c of that and not enough rain. Great place to bring your dog! Dog beach here and lots of smells! Open areas away from the busy parts if you need it

Beautiful park! Sunset is the best time to go, I loved walking by the water & there is lots of seating area & parking area! This is a special place for me!

Was clean and great spot for your fur kids to go swimming.. there were a few doggos there but we all kept rotating so each of our fur kids was able to swim and play and everyone we came across was super nice. Would recommend and will be back 🙂

I have photographed multiple sessions at this park and it never disappoints! The pier is amazing, so many beautiful spots for a beautiful session! The staff has always been amazing and keeps the park relatively super clean!
