Wow! This is a fun little park. It is within walking distance of many restaurants. Our children enjoyed playing here several times while waiting. My kids loved the monkey bar challenges. We came for the 4th of July festivities as well. The fireworks could be seen from many places, but the preferred viewing was down by the beach.
There was plenty of grass space in this area for lawn games and pets. The restrooms are nearby and have a water bottle refill and drinking fountains.

A beautiful little green space in the heart of downtown Grand Lake!! It was decorated with lights for Christmas time and was lovely. Plenty of people enjoying this area despite the snow on the ground. There are public bathrooms nearby, right at the back of the library. The basketball court was iced over and was being used as a skating rink. Plenty of dogs out and about here too as Grand Lake seems to be very dog friendly!!
An ideal setting for family and kids. Kids made friends with others that were from Australia! Ice skating on the frozen over basketball court. The ice skates were available at the shack on the lake close to the marina. What it was like when I was a boy a people still trusted each other, very refreshing.
The playground is fenced in, so parents can feel confident that their children are safe. The play structure is made of durable materials and has plenty of climbing opportunities for kids of all ages. The sand pit is a great place for kids to build sandcastles and have fun. The swings are a classic playground staple and are sure to provide hours of enjoyment.
The big barn is a great place for kids to have a picnic or just relax in the shade. There are plenty of benches to sit on and the barn is a cool place to escape the heat on a hot day. The restrooms are clean and well-maintained.
