I love this lake & my fiance, Shaunav& I absolutely love bringing the boys here to swim!! Its so nice, quiet, friendly people and environment all together and it just feels like home kinda in a sense. Its just so serene and it absolutely just takes you in and completely absorbs you in a way almost!! We love spending all day here whenever its nice outside and just spend time together as a family. Its a great place for everyone and anyone of all ages, and we can honestly say that you are definitely missing out if youve never been there thats for sure!!

This little park is a good spot to unwind and relax. The lake and park itself are pretty. One can observe wildlife such as ducks here and fishing is allowed. The bathroom looks rather grungy though. It would be nice if there was a trail that looped around the lake as well.

We have lived in the area for quite some time and had never visited the waterfront area before. We got a couple paddle boards from Costco for our kids this summer and tried out the lake. It was GREAT! The smaller lake size allows the water to be much warmer than most other lakes around and even though the water entry area is small, it was a great depth for our younger kids to just swim and chase the fish. I would say the main downside is just how small the water entry area is. It can feel crowded fast. But its beautiful and clean. I would highly recommend!

For dog walking it isnt my favorite best because it is essentially a long straight pavement walkway that spans the lakes side but we all have needs, ha. Its beautiful, clean and has picnic benches and some bbq spots so really its VERY FAMILY or small gathering FRIENDLY.

Sweet little picnic area and benches overlooking lake. Restful.

Nice little lake with trout and perch for fishing but the dock area is overrun with cattails which limits the space for fishing from shore and the boat launch is set far from the parking lot so you have to carry your boat about a 1/4 mile down the path to get to it. Not to mention the amount of suspicious characters roaming around.

I fish, & the fishing area over the last 30 years has gotten small, dirtier, more overgrown with brush & volunteer Alders & used syringes.. please Park Dept, clean out some of that brush & the weedy Alders & give us back some beach.

A great little park just behind Costco. Not much parking but the interurban bicycle trail goes right through the park. Nice place for a rest break when bicycling.

The park is beautiful and the maintained well, but there always homeless people and drug dealers and users around and you can see many used vaccines in the honey bracket or in the bush. I wish police present there a few minutes regularly so it getting better. But our police officers often sitting in a corner or hiding between the streets in in order to avoid worse situation for them.

Totally discovered this little park by accident. But it is very beautiful!Playground for the kids, and right on the inter urban bike path.Has a little lake with tons of different birds and ducks hanging around. One of the trees was full of herons.

After being on home detention because of Covid 19 many people were out enjoying the opportunity to exersize by walking, cycling along the interirban trail or fishing in the lake. People were actively practicing social distancing and most wore masks. The new bathroom looks like it could hold up to a direct missle strike. Also much of the human scenery was well above par

Nice little oasis of nature swimmable. lake was formed by ancient glacial melt waters 11-12 thousand years ago.

Review №20

The park itself is pretty with few benches and few grills and a nice view to the lake where everytime ducks and some other birds live their life), there is also small playground for the kids, BUT the biggest no-no is that there are almost everytime homeless people hanging or sleeping on the grass, especially in the summer time.

Great summer swimming lake, generally very clean, warm. Really small gravel beach for access, and some tables and benches for picnics. Bonus: situated next to the Interurban Trail! Toilet facilities have been degraded.

Its a beautiful little park, but expect to share it with a lot of nomadic people.

Review №23

A cute little park with so much potential placed in the wrong neighborhood. I visited Echo Lake Park with my daughters class to test the water quality for a science project, unfortunately there were a dozen hypodermic needles floating in the water and stuck in the trees at the edge of the lake. That combined with all the trash floating in the water made for a sorry sight. there is a porta-potty on site but I would be afraid to go in at considering the number of used needles around. The playground equipment appears in good repair but once again used needles. the ecologist that was with us said the park had been cleaned up since she was there the day before, which isnt saying much. Its hard to avoid such things with the proximity to Aurora, but it is good to know that there is a likelihood of running into drug paraphernalia at the park.

Beautiful little spot, not much shade but tables and bbq pits.Also bathrooms!

Review №35

Bathroom is closed down with graffiti on it, not sure why it was a good idea for them to shut down the one solid public bathroom in the area to replace with a ugly and odor filled porta-potty. The transit center right next door has no public bathroom and its very inconvenient to walk as far as the nearby stores. Home depot bathroom is at least a 10-15 minutes trip to walk there and back. Not to mention this is a customer only bathroom and if your in any type of rush to get back to the transit station to catch a bus then having the possible requirement of needing to make a purchase is out of the question.So you would need to settle for the porta party, this is but another con is that its placed almost directly on the inturban trail. Not what I want to smell or possibly run into if I was riding my bike down the trail. If someone opens the door to come out it would almost pose a accident risk if someone was at a moderate speed on any type of wheels such as wheelchair, ECT.

Echo Lake Park has been newly renovated. There is now a playground picnic tables and benches. The restrooms have been remodeled there are new pathways leading through the park. The area where the Ducks are at the lake has been redone also with a gravel beach and picnic benches around the area.This park is quite convenient and located next to Aurora village Transit Center. Its a wonderful place to wait for the bus to come.

Bathroom needs servicing and cleaning more frequently.Local dog owners need to be informed that their Fido does indeed belong on a leash, even if hes a pedigree and a good boy..Several areas of litter can be found along the park periphery. Park typically has a handful of drug users and homeless people scurrying about.

Its a nice little Lake. Nice place to go for a walk. Its a good place for a family picnic. Playground for the kids tables eBay even some barbecue. Theres even a nice little geavel beach area right next to the water. Not sure if its same to swim in the water. Its very likely there are ducks in the but i didnt see any. I did a goose.Its also right next to the Aurora Village Transit Cente. Home Depot and Costco are close by also. So you can go shopping and have a picnic with only one trip.
