Robert Simpson Park

Great waterfront.

Fair amount of parking.
Nice installations for picnicking (Table, benches and covered area)
Bathrooms on site. But were closed today at 7pm.
Very nice beach.
Splash pad and playground.
All and all great place to hang out as a family, located equal distance from most of the city.

When you park your car in the uphill parking lot to look into the distance, look down the winding road, a strong visual impact will naturally arise, that is the sky and water, water and earth perfect combination. When you open your arms, of course, I was don't want you to embrace the blue sky, but the perfect design of this place. The left hand is the beach and the right hand is the amusement park with water, suitable for children of all tastes. The most important thing is that barbecues and camping are not allowed here, which is great for those who like quietness.

Very nice view with access to kids play ground

Came from out of town and met up with friends from Ottawa at this park. What a beautiful place! I wish we had a green space like this where I'm from. The giant trees provide lots of shade, and the spalshpad/ climbing gym were a hit with my toddler. The views along the river are stunning. A must-go if you have young kids.
