Nice area to walk, run, picnic, and let the kids play. The big Possibility Playground is in the middle of this park, and is nice for younger kids. There’s actually 3 other smaller playgrounds within the park. Built in sizeable bathrooms on site.We enjoyed the lake overview spots on the east side on the park. There’s also one spot with a staircase that goes down to the water - which surprisingly has a nice little beach area and swimming spot.

This is a small, but lovely, park in Port Washington, up a gentle hill. The view overlooks Lake Michigan. There are picnic tables, some in the shade. There is a .72 mile walking path, a childrens play area and a sufficient amount of free parking. All in all, its one of our favorite places for a walk on a summer day.

A beautiful park with grand views of Lake Michigan and the Town of Port Washington. There are two play areas for children; one large and fully inclusive one, and a smaller more traditional one. There is also a great set of exercise equipment for adults.

Park is nice, but was looking forward to the beach part. I haven’t been here for a year or so and didn’t know the beach is actually gone and it’s just rocks. Did end up going to the south beach for water access.

I never knew this little gem of a park existed. I discovered it looking for a mountain biking trail and I was not disappointed in the mountain biking or the park.

Thanks to Milwaukees socialist roots this prime real estate was kept for the people to enjoy. On a nice summer day you can sit in one spot and see just about every type of Milwaukean stroll run or amble by.

Review №49

Sitting at the top of the bluff overlooking the sewage treatment plant, its not really bad if you stare straight out at Lake Michigan or look directly in front of you with the deer (five of them tonight) grazing ten feet away from you. Whoever thought it a good idea to put high rises in downtown Port Washington really ruined the ambiance of this once sleepy fishing town. Its a shell of what it once was. Also, a sewage plant right by the beach? Great minds!

This is a great little park right by the lake front. There is a decent parking area nearby and its walking distance to downtown Port Washington. There are a few other little parks in this area too in case this one is too busy. Great views while your children play.

This is a beautiful park on the cliff over looking lake Michigan in Port Washington WI. Great children play ground, nice restrooms, great open shelters. Benches along the cliff. Great parking, steps leading down to the beach.

Review №95

Excellent park located on the bluff in Port Washington, WI just north of the Downtown area. Great place for a picnic, walk, playground, grad parties, etc. In summer the park hosts a beer garden on Saturdays from 11-8 that is open to the public with music and food. Beautiful views! Possibility playground (located in the upper area of the park) is a universal playground and has play access for children of all ability levels. Great place to go for the day for slacklining or to set up a hammock between tree trunks.
