Reviews
"Wonderful park with beautiful walking path around the lake. Lovely view of some very nice homes and beautiful gardens. The dam at one end of the lake is crossable and kids love are fascinated by it. You won't be disappointed."
"This park was a gem in a busy city like Aurora. Well kept, easy parking and I don't have much information about it, but the gazebo area would be great for events. Fireplace, BBQ grills and seating all there. The rail near the gazebo would make a great location for a photo opportunity, like engagement photos or Christmas card photo. My only complaint was it was quite busy. You won't be alone for long. High traffic."
"It was a nice loop around the lake. I enjoyed seeing the beautiful houses and well kept yards. I saw some ducks and a few herons. I was surprised that most of the walkers did not say "hello", but whatever. The 4 that did made it nice."
"Gorgeous walking path and the people we run into are always very nice! We bring our little dog with us and she loves seeing all of the other dogs. There's not too much in regard to shade except a short quarter mile or so on the short loop but it's still a nice walk and I don't get eaten alive by mosquitoes which is nice!"
