The most beautiful park I've been to yet! I try to come here every morning on my days off. The woods are magical and the paths are well kept. The wildlife is abundant and most of the time it is quiet and without a crowd. You'll never know what you'll come across as the plants and scenery change from day to day giving an ever changing and beautiful experience ✨

One of THE BEST parks in the area. Great dog park, beautiful Irondequoit river flows right through it, lots of lodges for events, and don’t even get me started on the tennis courts. They are absolutely stunning, I feel like I’m in my own little sanctuary back there. Great park to take dogs kids or friends!

I've been here twice now with my pup and we've had a blast! We've kayaked and went paddle boarding. The water was kind of low and we got stuck on rocks a couple times, so not the smoothest time this year. She absolutely loves the water here! We have also had a cookout with friends. It's a super clean, well kept park.

Great place for a quick walk or a more challenging hike. A definite sledding spot in the winter. One of the best dog parks in the area (need to register before you go)
