Reviews
"This park has been revamped and is autism and handicap child compatible and friendly. It also has a dog park on the opposite side of the main park, so it's all around a beautiful area for picnics and everything else."
"Over by Loy Norrix side we were trying to grill out and most of the grills have no bottoms. Can't we come together as a community and help? Also some great caring idiosyncrasies decided to dump raw sewage meat the playground in the front so that's nice."
"I love the criss-crossing cobblestone pathways and the old style bridges over the meandering stream. Beautiful place for some fall colors not far from the city. There is a portion of the park that is more natural, with less mown lawn. For being a fairly large park, you never quite get away from traffic sounds or views. There are some cool old staircases that obviously previously went further into the park that is now cut off by fencing, parking lot, and what is now the golf course. Small, old play structure. Plenty of space to barbecue and picnic. Picnic shelter available as well."
"First my 4 star rating is based on memories and what the park use to look like. There is areas that are being restored and closed section for your safety and the front of the park is open for guests looking forward to seeing what the final outcome is for milham park because families and friends still enjoy the gatherings and beauty of being outdoors. Here is photos of currently in process of what's to come...stay tuned!!"
"Beautiful, historic park with a nice mix of scenery. Large open lawns, tree-covered walking paths, pretty views of Portage Creek. Gorgeous albeit tired stonework throughout, some dating back almost a century. A few neat abandoned paths and staircases to be found amongst the underbrush. Plenty of barbecues and parking, lots of room to spread out or walk dogs. Lower-lying sections of grass can be soggy along the water, baseball diamond is unfortunately too wet for use. Although this park has definitely seen better past decades, nothing is reaching dilapidation or real disrepair or danger. Overall it is still a very nice setting and worth a visit!"
