I visited The Vietnam Wall. Thanks to two sets of others visiting there also, they captured these photo memories for me. I came to visit Daniel Charles Patterson and Paul E. Lee. 1966 classmates from our Morse High School San Diego, California. Huge thanks to all whose names are listed on The Wall. THANKS to all involved in having The Wall here in Punta Gorda, Florida.

Went here on my first date with my boyfriend. We were friends at the time but it was still romantic. 2 years later its still the perfect spot for a stroll next to the water and a beautiful sunset.

I love this place. Long walk along the water. It has few gazebos and big courts to play pickled bowl.This promenade so long, its lead you to a Fishener Village Restaurant.Nice place to enjoy sunset.

My boys love Laishleys, they love the water park, the walking trail and that its close to the water. They enjoys going down by the water to find shells. Its, just, a cool little spot to take them to get out of the house for awhile and to cool off, if need be, as well...

One of the best walking parks in SWFL. No read lights or need to stop. Never too crowded and plenty of parking. Great way to get to know the area.

Beautiful, great wide open spaces for all to enjoy an abundance of activities. Arrived just before sunset, nice breeze from river lots of people walking, biking, skateboarders, families playing in the water fountains. Fun for all ages people with baby strollers or walking their dogs mice walking path around large field where we have watched soccer and rugby played on occasion. Great views of river, boats and sunset! Love this place!

This is a great park. I wasnt familiar with this park, not from Charlotte County. This would be a great place to ha e a picnic and enjoy time on the lawn. Theres plenty of spaces to throw a frisbee,play catch or just relax and take in the views of Charlotte Harbor. There are public restrooms and the pier offers sweeping views of the harbor. I highly recommend!

We go to Laishley Park often. Its open and provides a large space for my daughter to explore safely. The scenery is beautiful and there is a nice breeze by the water. Its a great place for events too, but could use some sort of shade on the green. Its a big open space and there is no relief from the sun, save a few tents at the festivals held there. The facilities are usually clean, and the kids love the fountain. The water appears clean and the whole area looks well-tended. We always have a good time.

Went to Taste of Punta Gorda. Beautiful, sunny day with lots of people!! Boogie Men, one of the best bands, played. Excellent. Not enough seating, and as far as tasting food, the lines were too long. I dont have a lot of patience, but come on. Should have had more people working

Great fun for my 3 year old daughter. And being a 3 year old...slides are a must do @ following older kiddos. The climbing up to the slide could be made a little less difficult, as kids will try and with their wet feet will slip up that 3 step climb, ready for a faceplant into it. . But very nice place

Quiet area for walking, meeting friends and watching the Harbor boats. The Hurricane Charlie statue draws many to read the plaque. The interactive fountain is fun for children. On the south side of the park is a Vietnam memorial wall/walk. This is a must visit for all who live here and the tourists that come to enjoy our temperate climate year round.
