Very cool fountain. It has a couple parts to it, that when its all working looks spectacular. The statue of James Scott sits in front looking over the fountain. The whole area is beautiful.
Very relaxing evening under the stars at Belle isle off the water just relaxing cooling out if you ever need some type of relaxation its the place to go to in the day or night sitting near the water and just relax take a lawn chair make me an umbrella for the shade if youre out in the daytime but its beautiful very soothing
When your heart aches for a sense of nature and tranquility James Scott Memorial Fountain can be self soothing. I love this place and its shaded hideaways. Its gift shop has much to offer as well, with the best part being the plants you can buy at a reasonable price. I hope to visit it more throughout the year.
Got married here recently. Beautiful for pictures and ceremonies.
Love it!! One of my favorite spots to visit whenever I visit my hometown Detroit
Childhood memories and even happier that the water was on. So pretty makes me to be a Detroiter!
Came from California and we took so many pictures right here! Very nice
My daughter wedding was held here just awesome scenery
Beautiful fountain in Detroits Belle Isle Park.
I am so disappointed with Belle Isle, I brought my son to play on this glorious day and was heartbroken and pi$$d off how it looked. There was trash EVERYWHERE!! How dare the STATE allow this to happen.
Beautiful fountain! Took my engagement photos here. Weddings also take place here.
It was old memories the whole way thru. Born and raised in Detroit Michigan and visit as much as I can. Its been 29 that Ive seem this Park
Love coming here but closed right now. Beautiful flower house and beautiful maze
As soon as you arrive....peace calm and tranquility
It was smokin’ hot out but a trip this was still worthwhile. Most of the isle’s attractions were closed since we were visiting of a Monday but the fountain was roaring and the mist being blown off was a delight. It’s the only American fountain I’ve seen that can hold a tee to any European fountains although the story behind it’s construction is a tad controversial.
Omg this park is freaking AMAZING! A MUST COME
Nice to see most of the fountain working very beautiful.
Kite festival drew me to this place, very relaxing beautiful
Epic epic epic. Very old world, European, gorgeous marble fountain. I expect all the photos look the same but it is epic and beautiful. The story is also fun if you look it up. A nice walk from a skyline of Detroit photoshoot stop. Parking is free.
Very nice area to take photos. Very peaceful
It’s crazy the amount of marble that is in this structure. Beautiful. Unfortunately when we were there the fountain was not on.
Beautiful its been a minute since I seen the fountain on loved it
I remember spending Summers here growing up and the James Scott Memorial Fountain has remained one of my favorite places to visit on Belle Isle.Read a book or just relax by the water while taking in the sounds of nature.
Love belle isle and all it represents. Go here everyday after work
Always have a good time here with my kids when we just wanna get out for a minute..and not too far from the beach
Beautiful fountain in Total white. Its better use sunglasses to admire it.
At one time when I saw this fountain it was run down and not working. The last time it was covered with scaffolding and plastic. I remember thinking I hope there going to fix it. Today I almost cried it turned out so beautiful, just like I remembered it as a kid.
Pretty nice attraction on Belle Isle. Always see people doing photo shoots of weddings and things.
Awesome place cool and clam to sit and relax with friends nd family nd u can grab good pictures around
This is the first thing when you go on the Belle Isle island. drive from the right entrance and this will be the first thing on your left.People usually go there for wedding photoshoot and stuff. This is a popular place for tourists as well. For Canadians pay $9 for the day pass and you are good to go.
Fun to explore and relax near the water.
Enjoyed sitting by the fountain and watching the sights.
A family traditon. . .summer pic at the fountain on Belle Isle.
Very beautiful and good place. It’s near Canada and you can see Canada and the streets and the Michigan river. I recommend this place to visit with family members
The fountain is working in all its beautiful glory!
Amazing place to take your engagement photos!!! So beautiful in the summer!
Beautiful place to visit. will visit again in summer.
Best part of Belle Isle!

Beautiful old marble fountain on Belle Isle. Great spot for pictures. Many wedding parties come here for photos. Detroit gem!
Beautiful, no water when we visited but still a beautiful fountain.
Beautiful and pristine. Wonderful views of the city.Belle Isle is a great place for a family outing, now very well maintained since the state has taken it over. Beautiful place for a picnic, in the middle of the Detroit river, with great views of the city and Windsor. A real gem worth visiting!
This place was very peaceful!
First time ever my grandchildren visited we as a family had a great time nice and clean beautiful sight
Im just gonna leave these pics. Ornate, huge, theres so many subtle details here. Another Detroit must see gem.
Belle isle has really came a long way. The fountain is beautiful at night. I would highly recommend visiting, especially if you are not from the area. At night it is lit up beautifully. Definitely worth seeing.
They barely have the fountain on, but when it is... its amazing!♡ only wish they would have it on more often
Wonderful fountain, but kept in a poor condition by the city of Detroit. Geese poop everywhere. Wish it was working when I saw it.
Because its my favorite spot here in Detroit its Belle Isle
This fountain is the most beautiful thing on this isle!! It makes my entire trip over the river worthy.
A most Beautiful wedding
Love this place. Easy to drive, walk around, explore and keep kids entertained
I have not been to Belle Isle in over 8 years OMG the state has done a fabulous job cleaning up the place I went for the 2019 Head For the Cure 5K Run/Walk for Brain Cancer research. My Team and Family had a great time. My Wife and I plan on making many trips back with the grandkids. Here is our Team at the Fountain
Beautiful fountain, a major part of my childhood and I hear that theyre doing much more with it! Nice to see some beauty extending beyond just the downtown area.
The JEWEL OF DETROIT
Love this place....
Here resides some of the original Detriot Lions. Definitely worth a visit.
We visit this every time we come to Belle Isle. I have personally been coming here since I was a toddler..love it and so happy each time I see it.
Id like to thank the State for taking over this gem of a park that was being neglected by the City. Its nice taking visitors from out of town to the park now. Feel much safer and the park is much more beautiful now.
Just great being out with family
So clean so nice
Good needs to get better
Very nice place
I love belle isle and this fountain. Its good to see it working
So nice and soothing~~~~ LOVE BELLE ISLE
It was beautiful very beautiful.
Looks fabulous!
Ok. I fell on the side walk and hurt my self. Went to the dr. And sprayed and torned some ligament in my ankle. And scraped up my knee.
If you live in the Metro Detroit area you got to stop at Belle Isle very fun place for the family.
Took the hog around Belle Isle. It’s a great go to ride.
It wasnt on but looks amazing
Still a favorite place to visit.
The fountain has been renovated, like many other areas of Belle Isle, and it certainly shows! I happened to stop by before the Grand Prix kicked off, and the walk was worth it. I struck up a conversation with a couple Detroit residents that have lived nearby for decades, and they said its never looked better.
A Detroit Michigan jewel.
We love Belle Isle in Detroit, Michigan. Detroit is a Beautiful Place.
I love the addition of the lights. I’m glad to see the well needed improvements.
Beautiful fountain wonderful Vermont marble.
Detroit hot spot... remodeled and is fabulous now
Love this place and all the married couples that come to take a pic here.. just nice spot
Its always my go to place
Saturday Bike Ride. Great place to Ride
Nice view and best place to watch sunset. So peaceful. We loved it, our one year kid enjoyed a lot. It’s so cool place. We can watch both Canada and USA from this place at a time. Love to go again. Must visit place in isle island.
One of my favorite places
So beautiful. Also have light display at night and see detroit skyline in the background.
Came here for the Grand Prix. What a great memorable experience. The fountain was awesome and great picture taking!
