October 8, 2020 - boat ramp is being redone so bathroom area is closed as well. We’ve been to this park prior to today and it was well maintained but today the grass was up past my shins and there was damage to pavilion roofs allowing huge wasp nests to build inside to the point that some pavilions weren’t safe to sit under. Unfortunate because this is a really nice lakeside park and beach other times.
Lovely, well kept CLEAN spot to sit & relax in the sun, drop your boat in the lake or picnic with the kids! Quiet, nice family oriented crowd. Restrooms were spotless, grounds well groomed & FREE of TRASH! Not a HUGE spot, but perfectly nice for a quick trip to catch some rays & a dipRecommend a visit!
Nice public Veterans Beach Memorial ParkGood place to walk near beautiful Lake Jackson. It has several picnic areas, and a playground for fun.
Nice little beach area. My husband would live here.
The kids love climbing and playing at this park so much!
It was nice. To bad no dogs allowed.
Nice municipal park on Lake Jackson with good boat ramp facility and restrooms. Playground is fun for the children. Covered picnic benches provide shelter in inclement weather and there are plenty of water birds to enjoy. Nice memorial for our Purple Heart recipients also. Parking is ample.
Construction going on to update the boat ramp, so you cant put a boat in for now but the park area and picnic areas are open.
My get away place if only for a few hours.
This is a small but wonderful park. Plenty of parking. There is a wide variety of wildlife present and the numerous picnic structures are really great. There is lots of shade and several beautiful, mature trees. This would be a great place for a birthday party or small family gathering.
I will update this review later now that I have sent complaints & frustrating images to who maintains this location. I find it embarrassing for our hometown city to maintain our boat ramp as this one has been. All I will say right now is hopefully it will improve. Best 2 pics added to post. Ill save the rest for now, given opportunity.
Nice and clean lakefront location, with accessible boat ramp. Bring hand sanitizer or soap as the bathrooms have neither. A good number of available pavilions for use and a playground for the kids. No cost for entry or parking.
Nice RELAXING DAY. YA HRRD..
Park seemed to be under construction possibly having the utilities worked on... Terrible smelling mud(?) everywhere....
Very beautiful park.
When we are in town we enjoy sitting here by the lake and listening to the water, birds and other critters. Its always fun to watch the boats come and go as well.
Great for family time and fun in the sun
Beautiful place to park and eat lunch
Saw this area on trail app for biking. The route around the lake is ruff sidewalk. There was a bike lane on West side. I stayed on sidewalk as people drive like they have a death wish down here. Cant tell you the number of beer bottles have just missed my head riding in the bike lane and that was 25 years ago. The park itself is very nice.
This was a weekly stop for me. It was an awesome memorial to meet others alike. God bless America.
I love the peace and quite, at this place, was able to put my pole in water, didnt catch anything, but I was with my favorite guy, my husband, my friend, so it was worth the stop.
Lovely park on the lake...
The memorial is well done. The park is beautiful since its Renovations. But they dont have enough for smaller kids. Every done the talk really well to a nice place to spend the day!
It needs some TLC.. and a play ground for the smaller kids.. other than that it was nice having a small place to go to in the area..
Peaceful and pretty calming DayThank You. Veterans for. Serving. USA
Needs to be maintained.
We park here and Walk in the mornings as the beautiful sun rises over the lake. Plus it has the only public boat ramp to Lake Jackson!
Im a pass military veteran and I think we should be honoring our Purple Heart veterans
Nice beach! Relaxing atmosphere!!
Very nice, well maintained area to walk and bring your kids or grandkids!
Perfect family getaway
Its a good place to take the kids to play and they have pavilion the adults can sit and watch them and socialize.
Beautiful. I love seeing the lake.
Nice beach. Boat ramp. Park with covered pavilions.
Nice park right on the lake and clean. Bathrooms could use updated lighting they are very dim and swim area could use a sandy beach area for kids to play in.
I love the pavilion and the view is second to none of Lake Jackson... but the bathrooms are not the best... with poor interior lighting
Beautiful view of Lake Jackson. Restrooms and surrounding areas clean and well maintained. All around very nice park.
Very nice park. There is ample parking for both truck and trailer and cars. The boat ramp serves 2 at a time and is a very modern ramp. The beach and swimming area is perfect for children. There are 2 larger pavilions and 6 smaller ones with picnic tables and grilles. There are restroom facilities as well. As a nice touch, there is even a bike repair station with tools provided!
Nice place the kids to play and have a cook out. No water fountains so bring your own drinks.
Quiet place, double boat launch, covered picnic tables
Boat ramp needs work
Much better than city pier no drug deals in parking lot thank you good for kids
Nice swimming area and lots of picnic tables. I was here early in the morning and the sunrise was spectacular! It has two boat ramps but truck and trailer parking looked a little crowded.
We bought a sub from Jersey Mikes and went over to Veterans Park, overlooking Lake Jackson. It was a beautiful day, the birds were looking for food, but didnt come on the table. Just a gorgeous day.
Walk by there virtually every day. Nice little park with picnic tables, grills, and kids playground equipment. Also a nice memorial to our Veterans and a reminder to never forget our Prisoners of War/Missing in Action.
They have grills and covered tables as well as public restroom. Boat ramp, playground. Great place for parties
Great quiet place for outdoor lunch
Very scenic... Good to unwind
It was a place to get away from the stress at working.
Peaceful, I Love the Veterans Beach!!!!
Good place to go. Relax and look at the beautiful lake. If you have a boat its a place to go. Fishing is not that great. But you can find it relatively nice
Great getaway place for family to enjoy Lake Jackson & the outdoors. Great beach & swim area..
Disappointed in the Christmas Boat Parade. Love the park, tho!
Its really an awesome park. They really need to spend some money on repair.... it is coming, but wayyyyy too slowly.
A place mainly for putting your boat in the water. Very scenic location. Free parking.
Cool
Tiny beach on the fresh water lake, very shallow. Lots of nice picnic shelters. Bike maintenance supply post, with air pump and most common tools you would need to do enjoy route repair s. Boat launch ramp.
What a lovely park. Very pleasant. Very well kept.
Very nice park. Beautiful view of Lake Jackson.
Nice family oriented place. Well maintained with multiple gazebos for shade and picinicing. Plenty of parking. Bathrooms are available. Worth checking out if youre in the area looking for light hearted fun in the sun.
Good place to hang out, fish, have a cook out.
Clean, nice beach, playground, boat launch, bicycle tools,public restrooms.
Beautiful lakefront memorial park.
Beautiful area and very clean
Boat ramp terrible half the parking roped off. Need more ramps just rediculas for a lake that big with one ramp in disrepair
Nice and peaceful. Needed grass mowed.
Not much for small kids to do. 5 and up is the ages youd want your kids to be so they can play.
Great place to have a cookout and just relax.
Small playground but my daughter loved it. Theres some fun obstacles for parents too.
I hate that a lot of the area will hold water making the pavement slick and the grass really mushy and gross but other than that we love going to Veterans Beach. The playground area really isnt toddler friendly its better for kids a little older.
Love the place water was cold but me and my friends loved it
Its been awhile I forgot how it is but I do remember it was beautiful
Give spot nice Sandy Beach nice lake, pavillions,parking
Very comfortable and great place for the end of the day sunset
The park no longer has swings and has a lot of suspicious people lurking around. I dont feel this is a safe place to bring my child anymore
Love to go fishing here. A special place for us
Had a nice time. Seems much safer than it use to be and much cleaner.
Beautiful park on Lake Jackson. Very clean with childrens plays area & boat launch.
Nice place
Its clean and quiet however not much for younger children.
Very cute park on lake Jackson. Small beach. Trash everywhere though.
Beautiful place
Nice for children to play but tables need to be cleaned
Perfect little small town playground with tiny beach area
We praise the name of the Lord!!!
Nice small park with a boat launch and restrooms
Beautiful sunrises here
Great park for the kids, plenty of pavilions for shade many picnic tables and benches for all of your gathering needs, bathrooms. Great view of the lake, perfect to ait on the picnic bench and watch the boats dock
Small park on the big lake with absolutely wonderful views.
A great place yo launch your boat onto Lake Jackson!
The birds have made a mess today
Nice ramp, little Beach, good environment. Great to be a lake. Clean.
Perfect
Great boat launch, and great venue for fishing tournament.
