First timer to this park. It was very nice. Familys were out for walks. The pike river is so nice . Park is well maintained.

Pets is a fine course. Usually well maintained. A very nice short game practice area. The course can be tough and easy. There are some rather shorter holes and some really hard and long holes. 8 and 17 have whats known as cardiac hill. If youre walking watch out. A nice screened in porch and a good food bar. Overall a very good public course.

Went there in the mid of Oct. Perfect time for beautiful fall color trees. Nice place to relax and afternoon walk.

Beautiful park. Great any time of year. Lots of nicely maintained easy access paths as well as rougher more difficult terrain to explore. Been in the spring, summer, and now the fall. Id like to come back during the winter to see the land covered in snow!

Beautiful park with lots of trails and different playgrounds. The dog park requires a small fee, but is well maintained. Currently, the Biergarten is closed but its nice when it is open. Im hoping that they will be able to open the picnic areas again in 2021, as those are nice as well.

One of the best parks around. Large variety of things to see and do. The pike River runs through the park, with fishing and hiking paths all throughout the park. Every season is amazing in this park. The bountiful trees have beautiful foliage in the fall. In the summer there are sand volleyball courts, many unique playgrounds, golf course, bike paths that connect to the greater bike path network in Kenosha and Racine. All year there are mountain hike trails as well.

Been going there since I was a baby. My parents always went for walks there before I was in the picture. Its beautiful but we dont like the fact that theres a beer gardens there now. Takes away the peace

I love all of the pathways in Pets to walk or climb or ride bikes on and the play areas for kids. A beautiful park just far enough away but close enough to have a picnic or go golfing.

The park is a nice park with lots of pathways to hike through nature. There are plenty of areas for picnicking as well. Within the park is a nice 18 hole golf course reasonably priced for a round

I came down to Pets practice pitching my Dome Tent. Ive never pitched a Dome Tent before, having only had the pup style ones before. It was very heartening to get offers of help from a couple of people and the sideways glances at what people thought was going to do my homeless excursion sadly did not pan out for them. Im simply learning how to do this before I decide to go camping next week. My apologies if I cost anybody any distress.

Yoga at the park on Monday nights is great! Started a few weeks ago and runs through the summer. Its absolutely free, you have to sign up on their website for tickets because they only have so many spots open, but there was at least 50 people in class today. Being outside, and enjoying the weather while working out is so fun

Fantastic place, amazing paths with views that are stunning. From personal experience I can say some of the paths in the forest are not very easy to traverse for those that are scared of falling or not very agile. Very fun and the outside paths are amazingly smooth and there is alot of open space for people looking to do anything.
