Very nice park well maintained out in the open areas, nicely landscaped. I spent 2 days cleaning the lake and the shoreline bushes and thickets of berry bushes while my wife filled in at Costco We are from Eastern Washington. Filled 1 and 3/4 - 42 gallon bags full of trash from the lake shore and thickets. And only covered 5% of the shore id say. Im a member of the Gambler 500 group and this what we do!!! Im particularly aggressive and addicted to getting Other Peoples Trash OPT out of the nature especially water as #allwatersarefiniteandsacred #everypeicematters #trashcation #addictedtothewild #packitinpackitout
Great place to walk around the lake, and can fish there. Kids 15 and under can fish w/out a license. Its very clean, lots of room to bring your animals ON A LEASH. above theres ball parks and even a nice and clean play area for kids. Personally I love this park.
Nice park, take my boy there for walks an to play on playground, he also likes to feed the squirrels. Though do watch out for the geese poop lol
Great playground for different age ranges. I love that there are plenty of benches around the playgrounds to sit on also. And our favorite thing is being able to go on a short walk around the lake. The swing mid trail is always a favorite with the kids. The only thing that I wish was different is that the parking lot wouldn’t be right up against the playground. Always feels a bit unsafe.
Fun park. Good amount of space, a few bbqs by a covered area. Lake is kinda duck pond and rc boat track. Not the best for swimming. Big playground for kids, seems popular and used often but lots of other space and tables or trails to walk.
This park is gorgeous! It has a beautiful lake, lots of open fields, a nice large playground, areas for fishing, a cute swing to overlook the lake in the park. Its often pretty busy though, but lots of room for social distancing.
Our family loves this park. There are many things to do. I enjoy the walking trail and the water view. The kids like to play on the play equipment. Its got lots of open grassy areas for running around and playing frizbee or other activities. The only reason for 4 stars is that on really nice days, the parking can be a nightmare.
This is a beautiful place to walk or play! Very pleasant. 4 stars, just because the busiest part of the park contains a large flock of Canada Geese, and their poop is very hard to avoid.
Great for kids 4-8, and the lake is fun to fish with my 17 year old daughter really enjoying her time. The geese are pretty large flocks but ignore people walking around. Overall I love bringing my kids here.
Excellent way to spend the day. Clean, if you ignore goose droppings. Movie in park is fun. Used to take my kids fishing when they were young. Never caught anything but the memory will last. Nice asphalt trail around pond. Picnic area and playground. Extra parking is nice
SHAME ON EVERYONE AT BRADLEY LAKE PARK TODAY 10/3/20.! THE MAJORITY OF PARK GOERS NOT WEARING MASKS OR SOCIAL DISTANCING. GENIUSES ALL OF YOU.! WHEN IT (COVID-19) HITS HOME (I PRAY FOR YOU IT NEVER DOES), MAYBE THEN YOU WILL WAKE UP AND TAKE IT SERIOUSLY.! ITS NOT ALL ABOUT YOU IT IS ABOUT EVERYONE. WAKE UP.! IF YOUR NOT PART OF THE SOLUTION, THEN YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.!
Something for everybody here. Two different play areas for kids, plenty of benches for older folks, handicap access for those who need it, covered picnic table area of about 30 ft by 40 ft square, some woods and asphalt path going through and around the lake, probably a one mile walk. Fishing too I think. Restrooms too. But watch out for the goose pooh!
Calm. Kid friendly. High visibility.The path is a bit unguarded as a nature walk in the city. But you know how that goes.
The lake was peaceful. I entered the park WITH PORT ARTHUR TX, C/O 1980 FITNESS CHALLENGE to complete. I DID IT!!
Very nice trail with a modest size park and playground for kids. The loop trail around the lake is 0.8 miles long, and it is great for a walk or jog. There are quite some people on this trail and park though.
Definitely a great park. A nice playground and a good walkway for walking dogs whenever. Also a beautiful place for pictures. We came out here to shoot pictures for my sister in laws wedding and it was perfect.
Very nice park for the kids, designed for special needs kids as well which was a big plus. Picnic tables to eat and lots of benches to sit. Also BBQ pits to cook.
Nice place very relaxing, great people. Walmart is walking distance away so if you forget anything for your picnic or party, you are gokng to be okay. Not sure if you have to reserve the gazebo for an event or whether its a first come first served basis.What to expect:Pros:-nature trail around the lake,-fishing ramp(small)-nice quiet picnic tables along the nature trail-squirrels and geese are the most wildlife action I have seen here.-green well kept grass that makes the whole park beautiful-a small patriotric memorial segmentCons:-finding a parking spot can sometimes be difficult because of demand. This is most common on the weekendsGo with confidence
The place is beautiful. It has a large play ground, big hiking loop and nice views on the Bradley Lake.
Nice park. Walking trails and kids playground. Lots of parking. Plan to return
I love walking at Bradley Park. Very nice and peaceful.
It has a beautiful lake you can look at at all times as you walk around it. The trail is easy to get to and is nice to walk or run on. Little wild animals are all around the walk as well. Plus it as many other paths you can take for longer walks.
Its a good fishing spot I caught a 6 inch trout
Love love love this park. The paved trail is perfect for my kids scooters. And when we dont have the scooters there are a lot of side trails. Just watch for the goose poop.
Lots of space to hang out. Good size parking lot. Love the trail around the lake for running.
I love this park, the trail is nice, with a bench swing, picnic area, and playground for the kiddos. The lake is nice to look at as well.
Looks beautiful I will have to visit when the weather is nice.
Two huge playgrounds and a beautiful lake and place to play volleyball! And a scenic trail to walk! Just beautiful!!!
Great place to take the kidos really clean place ...there is fishing at this lake also..
Quiet and peaceful. We had a great time taking pictures of a couple of our Funko Pops
Nice big park to walk the trail around the large fishing pond, nice playground for all ages, and nice open restrooms.
Absolutely beautiful, clean, plush green grass and trees! Stunning sights and lake views.
Brought grand daughter n daughter to fish. Had a great time. Even tho we didnt catch any thing.
I love how they recycled the old farm into a place for the public to enjoy!
A nice park to visit! Just have to watch your step in grassy areas cause of the geese.
Absolutely love the park. And the trail is amazing.
A classic feature of South Hill, you should definitely stop by and walk around the lake. They just put power and water in by the picnic tables too! Just go off into the woods a ways if youre going to smoke.
Great place to take the kids out or walk on a nice day.
Nice for a short walk, not a hike by any stretch. Still very scenic despite its suburban setting
Great playsets. Yes theres more than one. Um.. the grass and trails by the lake are covered in goose poop. Beware haha
It was amazing, better than any park in Tacoma. No homeless camping and no one smoking weed.
Beautiful scenery and a easy paved trail around the lake.
Was a wonderful place to go and have a picnic with the family.. also its got good trails for hicking for the family. My family had a blast today
Great walk around the pound you can even let your little ones fish
Great for a good walk lots of room for everyone.
Nice park for a picnic. My favorite one in this area. Beautiful lawn, and well-kept in general.
No masks, great social distancing, big trees with lots of shade, parking available - lovely picnic dinner!
What a nice park and a great place to take a walk.
Its a great place to walk the dog around the lake.
Enjoy this hidden Gem, This lake is a great place! The trail is wide and paved, totally stroller friendly! The distance around the lake is .9 miles so one round puts you at just under a mile! There are two play grounds here as well. Fishing is allowed and the lake is stocked with trout! There is one large picnic gazebo area and lots of picnic benches around the lake! Dog friendly park.
Nice park, good location, solid paths. Nice little place to visit.
Nice and clean. Except for the bird poop everywhere around the lake
Well maintained, clean, and very livable.
Since Covid and opening of Park, not to crowded and plenty of parking.
Attention; Playground is close( of course, there is always people who break into prohibited yellow tape zone). The restroom is open. Only green field and around the lake is open.
Very nice park. Great for walking.
Great park for the family or romantics! Ball fields, play parks, lots of picnic tables and fun paved trails!
My husband, son, and I visited the park today for the first time. It was so beautiful, peaceful and clean. We had a lovely walk around Bradley Lake and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Perfect for BBQ party. Nice place to chill
Wonderful place to throw balls and run around.
Love that park just wish people would learn to clean up after their dogs.
Love the baby geese!
Nice spot to walk/jog around the lake with your doggo.
Theyre either charging money to park a vehicle in there or they have it blocked off for Christmas lights.The lake itself is polluted so you cant be near it.
Great place for Sungazing at the end of the day.Has a baseball field and play park for the kids.Bradley Lake Park offers a paved serene stroll around the lake itself and is fully encompassed in the beauty of the surrounding 1,000 year old conifer forest. Mycology research boasts a wonderfully diverse variety of specimens among the Sitka spruce, Douglas fir, red cedar, and western hemlock. So theres always something new to stumble across. There are wild bunnies abound offtrail and geese galore for those who enjoy the lake front sedentary approach. Watch out for the poop. Fishing is also on the menu and you may be able to catch yourself naturally reproducing yellow perch, brown bullhead catfish, large mouth bass, or black crappie. Hatchery rainbow trout is also stocked annually so grab your fishing pole between March and May.
Caught 4 good looking Rainbow Trout!!
Great place for kids to play and parents to walk
It was nice there where some areas with stank but all in all very nice and none of the geese attacked me this time
Absolutely beautiful park. The nearby lake makes it even better. 0.8mile around the lake for those runners out there.
My dog really likes this park. Says squirrels are top notch. Lots of places to sniff and answer pee mail in decent amount of time.
Great place to walk your dog. Trails feel safe...
Its mushroom season and Bradley Lake park is one of my fave hunting grounds. There are plenty of trails off the beaten path. Unfortunately there are people that lack respect for nature an other park visitors and its on these paths that those people so rudely leave trash. I always do my part and remove some of the debris that most people walk right past. I encourage others on these beautiful paths to join me in my efforts to pick up after those that abuse the public park we enjoy.
Absolutely love this park! Great place to have a pic-nic or just a romantic walk a around the lake (pond). We love taking our dogs here too! They love it as much as we do. It is pet friendly with poop baggies available. Nice gem on South Hill.
Nice park. But bathrooms need to be maintained better.
Great for fishing, waking in the woods, or just running around the playground. We love taking the kids there.
Bradley Lake Park is a very nice family park and is great for walking. I was impressed...
Enjoyed our Bible study and ladies group time here.
Nice walk, big play area, lots of grass and feilds, all smack dab in the middle of Puyallup! Definitely a favorite of ours!
This is a great park. Two really fun playgrounds for children of all ages. There are usually a lot of children playing on the weekends. There is also a nice lake that you can walk around, I would say it’s about 3/4 of a mile to walk around.
Nice, clean park. Paved path for strollers. A lot of benches and tables spaced around the lake, nice for sitting with my baby and feeding him. Has a playground for when he is older. A lot of better aged individuals and many dog walkers, people are friendly. Ive seen a few homeless people there on my many trips but none on our most recent trip.
Amazing place for walk, play, fishing and spent time with family and friend
This is a clean family and dog friendly park.. great play area for kids . Well kept safe trails
Clean and pretty. People were nice. Family friendly. Easy to get to restrooms.
The park looks beautiful and has a nice swimming area
Dope! Go for the walk there are little surprises on the trail.
Beautiful and nicely maintained.
Its absolutely beautiful, there are a lot of trails you can walk on and a park for the kids. A baseball field from what I saw, just beware the grass near the lake; it is absolutely covered in geese and duck poop.
Nice clean park. Could use a few more picnic tables
Clean great park for a walk, run or playing
Beautiful park with a large playground. A very tranquil walking trail around the lake. We love this park. Oh, and the bathrooms are surprisingly clean for a public park!
Beautiful day out. Lots of birds and squirrels
Beautiful Park well kept.
Love this place a lot but the ONLY thing that should be done is the water. Make it so that little ones can put their toes in.
Beautiful Park to walk and not too crowded.
Good sport to hangout for BBQs. The lake has a well paved trail all around. Various spots around the lake have additional sitting spots. Parking can be an issue. I recommend parking at the lowes right by the lake. There is a small trail head that is close to the big grass area. Puts you closer to the bathrooms.
Nice place for picnic fishing jogging biking etc
Greatly appreciated and enjoyed
