Millvale Riverfront Park

Review for PAVILION RENTAL. This is a great location for an outdoor event, as it pretty much works rain or shine. While the non-resident rate for a full day may feel expensive, it's very competitive and the location has a lot to offer. City and river views, hiking and biking trails, river access, a playground, and plenty of free parking. The pavilion has a great wood-arched roof and decent lighting. There are two restrooms that are technically non-public as they are locked when there's not an event in the pavilion. But understand they are effectively open to all on the day of your event. There's a full kitchen with a pass through window and necessary appliances (a commercial fridge, but no freezer, and an electric stove), a three hole sink, and a decent amount of work space (extra tables are useful if you plan to do much food prep). You'll need to bring everything else (including soap and sponges). There are also two cast iron charcoal grills on the river side. There are a bunch of picnic tables of various sizes. Most were in pretty good shape. Overall, this was a great place for a casual celebration with family, friends, food and live music. I'm sure a Master party planner could transform the space into something even more special, as the space has great potential.

Very peaceful and relaxing. The water was nice to sit by. Nice trail to walk on. Not many people there. Dogs allowed. Only con is public bathroom was locked.

Great place to put your kayaks in the river. Easy access. Can pull down the hill to the barge to unload. Was about three miles to the city. We stayed to the right at herrs island. Very calm no wake water.

We always come here when we want to ride our bikes along the North Shore. It’s an excellent place to park for access to the North Shore if you want to run, walk or ride your bike there. It’s about 2 miles from the parking lot to the North Shore. There’s so much to see on the North Shore and thus park is a great place to start from.

I love it here! I love it when I'm with my kids. We always have fun. I love it when I'm by myself. I can stare at the river forever.
