Lived in Lakeshorewoods for about 14 years, and this park was way better until 5 or 6 years ago when the town decided to renovate it. They installed barricades, fences, and blocked public access to the waterfront upto an extent that it has lost its charm the way it used to be, i.e. Natural! Still you may enjoy it if you don't know what it was before these renovation, and plenty of walking pathways and natural habitats. Kids play area has new style slides, swings and climbing structures, with safe padded soft rubber ground in case they fall. Parking lot is small but easy, if parking lot is full then go little south on Great Lakes Blvd and park on one of the side streets where 3 hrs parking is free. No public washroom but gas stations and coffee shops within 1-2 kms either side of Lakeshore Rd so not an issue. Overall giving 4 Stars because this place used to be one of my favourites before recent renovations. CAUTION: Family BBQs or BBQ of anykind is prohibited bylaw in all Oakville public parks. You need a licence with public liability insurance policy to do BBQ at a pre drsignated spot in any park here. You may be able to do BBQ in Bronte Provincial Park though but entry is not free.
Want to relax in busy life then you should be there sit quietly and hear ???? touching the shore it will put you automatically in calm mode I bet you you will enjoy beautiful nature.
I seen and heard people often go to artificial places to get relaxed but try nature free of cost.
it's a nice small park
one of the few left that still has free parking
Beautiful and clean. Children's playground and nice trail.
Simply wonderful. Love the Lakeshore and I liked this now than Port credit that's a fair bit closer from where I live, due to its peaceful and tranquil environment. The small beach, the walk along the water, the beautiful Oakville neighborhoods- great time out place for me.
