This is a beautiful park! The park was clean, quiet, well maintained. My best friend booked his wedding here, the price to book the park and buildings was very cheap. The staff was very kind and helpful.. The flowers were beautiful in the park and made the back drop for the wedding more surreal... If your looking for a good venue for a wedding or even a family get together i would highly recommend..
Very beautiful park. Most of the parking seemed to be curbside on the street, although there was parking near both pavilions. If events were happening at the pavilions, then you could forget parking close. Parking is probably the only thing for me that varies with 1 to 3 stars. It got very congested that particular day.
Beautiful park. Wonderful for strolling the walks around the rose gardens. Planted annual gardens are exquisite! A park everyone should enjoy at least one time but I am confident you will return.
Relaxing and beautiful. The rose gardens are immaculate and the ponds just serene.
Beautiful place. Im fortunate to live within a few blocks so this is regular walking area for me. Lovely all year round.
Very beautiful park!The rentable party areas are very primitive though
I like lakeside Park, people walk their dogs I like to see the different breeds, I love the way its placed out, I love the water fountain and the birds.
Excellent venue Absolutely beautiful My Son and his wife had their wedding ceremony there and it was breathtaking with 79 degree weather and clear sunny skies
Nice park with a good playground for small children. The garden was beautiful. Local visitors were very nice.
Another one of Fort Waynes beautiful parks. Lots of folks enjoying a beautiful afternoon
Absolutely beautiful! The city needs to post reserves signs when the garden is rented for weddings. Multiple people were walking through the practice and almost the ceremony.
Love this place winter or summer everyday is beautiful and the best part is free
Its not heaven, but good enough for free.
Great park. Tennis courts are nice. Very well kept park
Beautiful park. Incredibly clean bathrooms.
Went to a wedding and the reception. It was a very beautiful Park. Had a nice time.
This place is so well kept and always a blast for my kids to go to oh, I love it here.
This is a very nice park right in the middle of our city. There are a lot of different places to explore and you could spend an entire afternoon just wandering around. Its a great place to go and kill time right in your own backyard. A little bit something for everyone. There are playgrounds, picnic areas, a lake, garden area, a place for parties and anything you could think of really.
What a beautiful park! In summer, it is a truly photogenic place to stroll around and enjoy the flowers. And in winter, its still nice! The paved trails dont get too sloppy, and theres plenty of spots to take a break if you need to.
Landscaping for Spring, Summer, Fall around the pond is always lovely and peaceful. The park has a great walking path, a playground, tennis courts, and shelters (one really nice enclosed shelter with a fireplace). Its most photographed area is their promenade area used many times for weddings.
Chill little park in a beautiful neighborhood
The rose garden is something you dont see everyday, especially in the downtown area. Pond Champs do an excellent job at maintaining the ponds around the park!
Roses are blooming and its pretty. Bathrooms are a little dirty . Overall a nice place to exercise and go for walks.
Beautiful park with so many flowers. Nice place to spend the day
Its a wonderful place to relax and forget about everything.
Very pretty and well kept! Beautiful place for a wedding or just a good, scenic walk!
Beautiful park, they do great keeping it well kept.
Beautiful park that offers something for everyone! Best rose garden around!
I Love Lakeside awesome flowers, wonderful people walking,ride bikes just Great place!!!
Beautiful rose garden and courts are always Poppin
This will be my favorite park for all my days.Was my Grandmas favorite place.When we couldnt find her, thats where shed be.She loved looking at all the flowers and smelling them. Wed be there for hours just wandering around.
Beautiful place to take pictures and quiet place to take walks with my napping baby and dog. Even in the winter the natural pond is great for photos with my retriever.
Park beside the rose garden an pond.real scenic
Beautiful place to visit in Ft. Wayne and a great idea for a date.
My fiancee and I favorite park
Pleasant atmosphere. Flowers werent mature tho.
I absolutely loved the atmosphere extremely beautiful
Its a great park. You have a few pavilions and the rose gardens for events. Its always busy though! Its a very busy place to go to and parking is hard to find. The flowers are beautiful as well. Its a decent place to have an event at.
Nice place to go with family on a sunny day in winter. In summer a must place to go see & enjoy.
I got married here. It was very pretty.
The rose garden in Lakeside Park was designed over 100 years ago and is beautifully maintained. The basketball courts and the rest of the grounds are always in great shape as well. Fort Wayne parks are the best!
This park is amazing! I grew up around the corner and cant think of Fort Wayne without thinking of the Rose Gardens. Every year they dedicate time to make it come alive with flowers and continue to maintain their health throughout the summer!
Most beautiful place to escape to
Clean beautiful relaxing park
Stunningly beautiful. Proposed and had engagement photos here. Peaceful.
I like the ponds and all the trees surrounding it. The rose gardening is beautiful. Only problem is all the foolish people taking up space taking engagement and wedding photos. If it wasnt for all the weddings bogarting the most unique meditation part of the park, it would be fine.
The pond needs to have some type of security around it.....my son damn near drowned in it years ago....it’s extremely easy for a child to access especially ones with lots of energy......other than that it is a very beautiful park
Love there flower garden
Beautiful park with a lovely little lake and photogenic white columns. The path to walk around is very nice and the place is well kept. The traffic from the city around is not ideal, but everything else here is perfect for a day out.
Beautiful place for pictures
Best place to visit with friends or family in town. Very beautiful park especially in spring.
One of our favorite parks! Love the rose gardens
First time visiting. Beautiful landscape, lots of places to stop and rest, also plenty to see and explore. Appreciated the labeled varieties of roses so we could educate ourselves on what we were enjoying visually.
My favorite city park. Something for everyone. Playground for the kids, tennis and basketball courts, great rose and flower gardens. Pavilions and open spaces. All in the heart of the 05
Beautiful place to relax. Walk or even take a lunch to the park. Enjoy the peaceful sounds around you.
Alot of great memories!
Beautiful flowers at this park, sidewalks all the way around the ponds, and nice playground.
The park boasts a beautiful rose garden that is breath-taking in the spring and summer. You will see many weddings taking place here in the warmer months. The park has huge, open grassy areas - great for soccer or to play fetch with your pup. The basketball court/tennis courts are a little dated and rundown but you will still see people using them and enjoying the warm weather.
I very much enjoyed my visit!!!! The American Foundation For Suicide Prevention ceremony was beautiful!!!! I look forward to coming back again next year
Super serene!
This park and garden is beautiful. With a pond in the middle, beautiful landscaping, and a circular path, its excellent for walking your dog, going on a romantic stroll, or getting family pics taken. Nestled into a neighborhood with very neat historic homes, this is an excellent way to spend an afternoon strolling through the heart of Fort Wayne.
Beautiful park, well maintained gardens
Fun place for families
Ive been going to this place ever since I was a little kid. Still is nice now as it was back then. Now Im bringing up the Next Generation and me and one of my good friends daughter went out there so she can learn how to ride her bike. Always good scenery and a good place to bring young children
One of the gems of Fort Wayne. Highly recommended that you go in the spring and summer to check out the rose gardens! Be careful that you dont get caught in a wedding picture... seems a lot of photography goes on. Watch out for the geese too!
Great spot but parking is limited. Also a wedding party from the rose garden were drinking & using the facilities & garbages from our rental space.
A beautiful tranquil place to be
Love walking here.even in the rain
Its beautiful! Great place to relax and clear your mind.
Pretty but needs repainted
Great place to go and walk while letting the kids play!
Its fun, a good rest stop, in a good place, has a cool lake, and lots of dogs!
Favorite park in Fort Wayne, but its exposed. I dont know why I like it so much. Maybe a sense of nostalgia. There are better parks, but this one is my favorite.
Close to home in a beautiful Park
LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this park. It is a beautiful place for a walk or picnic and has a great playground for the kiddos
Really pretty well taken care of and lots of playground equipment
Oh my goodness this park was so beautiful and many different flowers and plants .I wished that I had more time to visit there.
I really like this park. I grew up near it and always loved to take walks with my dogs around the area. My family has had a number or of family reunions and birthday parties in their pavilions and Ive also been a part of a couple of weddings in the beautiful garden area. Its normally pretty well kept up and clean, but sometimes can get a bit messy. Overall, I really love this place. Im not sure how expensive it is to rent the areas, but it shouldnt be much
Great place to take photos
Amazing but smaller then youd think
