Great place to go in the summer and swim. You can rent boats and buy food at the shelter. Great fishing on docks and nice woods to walk in. They hold great camps in the summer. Five stars totally recommend

Great park off Monroe street. Launch is suitable for a variety of boat sizes, but great for kayaks and canoes. The lake is non-motorized so very kayak and canoe friend. Parking at the park is limited, get there early!

Beautiful and a wonderful view! I love that Madison has so many amazing places like this.

This lake is so calm. It can be pretty full on busy days, but there are no motor boats aside from a few fishing boats. I have a membership for the boat rental place and is one of my favorite places to going kayaking.

Spent the morning kayaking with my family this morning. Every one was very friendly and helpful. Great place for making some family memories or just relaxing on the lake.

This park is good. The people of Madison gather here to lay about and drink beer. There are small boats, softball fields, and the log rolling team gathers on the regular.

This park is absolutely beautiful and it seems that many people agree because its always packed with people. There are people everywhere. Its a very popular park!

Lovely. Staff at boat house very helpful.

Nice quiet place to relax and unwind.

Great place to get out on the water boat rentals and lessons

Lovely park, you can rent kayaks too

Always a good place to enjoy Madison lakes.

Its a crowded place with limited parking. But the lake is nice and rentals are available.

Its a beautiful place. Theres a soccer field in the park and the lake is great for canoeing. Once could also get a great view of the Arboretum

Small park but nice. Has rentals, food hut, public restrooms, log rolling. We had so much fun here!

Great rental prices, and a beautiful lake to paddle on. Easy/beginner friendly setting.

Family, pet friendly

Amazing place

Great relaxing place to boat and enjoy the day with park activities.

Beautiful little park in the fun Monroe Street neighborhood. Nice walking trails.

One of our favorite parks. Great place to go for a picnic by the lake. We also launch our Kayak here for short trips around the lake. Monroe street is nearby for custard or a snack. There are several sports fields that are fairly frequently used, but also a lot of open space for general use. Some great old oak trees on top of a hill make a great spot for a picnic with a view over the lake toward the arboretum.

The people working were very nice and the equipment was great. My group had a great time.

Always fun especially for the kids!

Best place in Madison. Love this park.

This was my first kayaking and it was simply amazing!!

Beautiful views and a calming area for a walk in the evening. Ill be back when the canoes and rentals are available.

Was awesome! Staff was great!

Great park for the kids! Lake Wingra is right there for cooling down, and dont forget your grill, so you can spend even more time there! Drop a fishing line in the water and see what you can pull out. So much fun for everyone in the Family.

Great experience with my son.

Great, well-maintained park with plenty of picnic tables, access to water. Kayak, paddleboard and paddle boat rental. Concessions stand with beverages, snacks, ice cream and pizza.

A piece of the Northwoods in the heart Madison

This is a great park that has anything and everything you would look for in a park. From basketball hoops to tennis courts and playgrounds, it provides all.

Great park to hang out at and rent a kayak. Always stop here when Im in Madison.

Outdoor family fun.....water sports

Awesome place to host an event as there is plenty of space. The facilities are quite nice. 5 stars.

Loved our Kayaking experience

Shoreline just landscaped. Busy with canoes, kayaks and sup boards

Best place to be during summers. Even being here during winters is rewarding if you like walking on the frozen lake.

A lovely place to go and relax, go boating, fish or kick a ball around. Also they rent boats, you can launch there and they hold many local events.

Nice quiet park, no speed boats. Quiet lake. Very nice setting.

Nice park with lake access. Be prepared to park on the street and walk as the parks little parking lot fills up quickly.

Great spot to sit by the water. Went here for my sisters birthday

A great place for kids

My dog loves it!

This reviewer enjoyed the peaceful ambience of the parks many trails and nice facilities. However, I was perhaps slightly (to say the least!) disturbed by the abhorring amount of inebriated, angst-ridden youths gathered round a makeshift bonfire. Now, I am all for having a good time, but a few of them even had blood inexplicably smeared on their hateful, vapid faces. Sufficed to say, I got myself and Constance (Golden Doodle, pure bred naturally) the heck out of there! So while Im conflicted, Im also undeniably intrigued by this new tribal youngster fad. My ruling: a cautiously optimistic three stars.

This is a great place to launch a kayak and enjoy the water around the arboretum and the UW Madison.

Great out of the way park still inside the city!

Great trails in the heart of Madison

Great place to rent a kayak, paddle boat, canoe or board for a lazy afternoon pn lake Wingra.

Great place to take the kids fishing.

Nice park with canoe, kayak, sup rentals on site

Our summertime hangout for the whole family. :-)
