Lake Shore Park

"Perfect place for a great view and peaceful walk."

"Brought my grandson to Lake Erie for the first time. Beach close to parking. Waves were nice like the ocean without the salt! Kaleb had fun digging a hole to China in the sand. I love the smooth round rocks we found at the beach. There was a place to change into bathing suit and use the restrooms. That could use an update!"

"More education needs to be provided to visitors about the dangers of feeding human food to the park's birds. Human and pet food can cause irreparable harm to them in multiple ways including malnutrition, disease, and often irreversible and deadly conditions like "angel wing", a wing deformity in aquatic birds caused largely by eating human foods. I've seen a few cases of this in geese and ducks at the park this year including one Canada gosling at the park right now. This goose will never fly and will eventually be rejected by its flock. It will have trouble finding food eventually and die because people fed it things like bread, Cheerios, pancakes, dog food, etc. The ducks, Canada geese, domestic geese, and the swan are all susceptible to the same problems that can arise when we misfeed them. For example, your old bread has no nutritional value but makes them feel full -- this is detrimental. That same bread could have even slight mold which could lead to the geese, ducks, or swan losing their waterproofing and being unable to swim. If you're not sure what's safe to feed the animals at the park, either ask a worker or only use the food from the feeding stations."

"Beautiful view of lake Erie. Plenty of pavilion seating, swing benches, or lake side on the beach. Lots of parking, a nice sized playground for the little ones. Or take a stroll around the park area and visit the duck ponds and the peacocks. Nice walking paths and frisbee golf. Great area for a family/ friends picnic or gathering or just to clear your mind and relax."
