Its so peaceful. Theres canoeing or paddle boating for 10$ for the day. Yes, the whole day or if Im not mistaking 45$ for the year. All depends on u. Theres a gym on site, basketball, walk trails, fishing. Or if u just want some alone time to think, etc. Good place to be with friends/family.

Nice and quiet, very few people. In the middle of the Hyde Park, no overnight parking. If you want to enjoy the lake you need to purchase a permit. Next to the Hyde Park High school. And there are several sports court near the lake.

Quarries Park has this great little beach spot. Perfect for children under eight. Its about 70 yards long, 20 yards wide and at its deepest four feet or so.My kids play in the sand, walk out into the algae filled water, look at turtles and small fish and generally have a blast.Make sure you go with them. Im in the water the whole time, my little one needs me at least once a trip.Also support the organization and Google buying a lake permit. Its $45 for a year and for us its well worth it.Can also rent kayaks and canoes I believe, although I havent done that personally.Tons of people fish there, its catch and release only.

Beautiful park, love the lake side. Somewhat clear water, it was great for my dog to be off leash and into the water. Will visit again soon

Beautiful scenery but no fish only turtles. I have tried several times with lures and live bait, nothing. 45usd a year to access the lake.

My favorite place with peace

I had so much fun on my first Kayak trip! Im ready to go again. It was so peaceful and very well maintained.

Nice park with duck & turtle pond dogs on leash, walking trails.

Kind of hidden but quiet, nice and beautiful place; there were small turtles too :)

Lovely place to rest and enjoy.

Fun place to enjoy with the dog

Neighborhood lake/park, great scenery!

Beautiful and unexpected. So much fun waking and looking at wildlife!

Nice quiet and beautiful

Peaceful and secluded I spent quite a bit of very nice place to get away from hectic world

If you like to fish, this place is amazimg. $10 will get you a years fishing license. Several 5 lbs bass in this lake and its never crowded.

Very nice night

Pretty and quiet

We were at a kayak demo, we had 4 for other people to demo so we were there all weekend, it was really fun

In a city riddled with consumism, shopping malls and crazyness, some green grass, a lake with fresh air and quiet sightseeing is a great deal

A secluded, neighborhood park bordering a small quarry lake (with fish). There are no amenities other than a picknick table and a couple tennis courts. But its not crowded and makes a nice destination for neighborhood dog walks.

Perfect for remote controlled sailboats or swimming around the buoys Swim at your own risk.

It takes you away from the city closer to nature

Love that its hidden and quite. Sit relax and watch the sunsets with the duck. You can do fishing or canoe or kayaking. Beautiful place to hang out.

There are many nice fields for sports and games and nice ponds. If you own a kayak or stand up paddleboard you buy a lake permit from the Hyde Park church to go out on the lake.

Ok, now this is a toss-up because on one hand, the place is amazingly beautiful, well maintained, private, and from the one day I have visited, uncrowded which I love.However, the reason I justified paying $35 dollar permit fee is because I planned on fishing. Now Im wondering if that was a good idea. I dont mind seeing a turtle every now and then when fishing, but this lake is so overcrowded with them that they were swarming at my lure and my crawfish trap. I had to keep pulling the trap up and emptying anywhere between 5 to 8 of them out of it, and that was nasty because these critters had critters lol. I noticed that leaches were falling off these turtles. They werent covered in them as far as I know, but when I lifted the trap off the wood, there was 5 or 6 of them scurrying away. I know.... gross right? They DO make good bait though lol.So for my first visit, I cant condemn this place. But I sure wouldnt swim in those waters, IF you were allowed to, which you ARE NOT BTW! And Ill have to wait to judge the fishing after a couple more trips. But if you want a place for playing with your dog, or picnicking, or just a nice stroll across the lake in your canoe, this would be the perfect place.

Beautiful place.i never knew it was back there

4th of July fireworks are great

Would be nice to know its part of a school.

Nice gotta go to feel it the peace & tranquility!

The lake is amazing, canoes and kayaks are easily accessible and so much fun. You will have a blast no matter what you do.

It’s very good there

Such a beautiful area of town, this little hidden gem is great for a picnic by the pond or hanging out in their pavillion. Some great photo opps, too, look out for a cute little bridge over the creek!

Beautiful, quiet and serene.. Lots of turtles!

Great park for the dogs and kids
