Erie Metro Park is my favorite park. It has almost everything you would want in a park. It has fishing, boating, nature trails, nature center, wave pool, picnicking, bike trails. It is well kept and clean. My wife and I often ride our bikes or walk the trails in every season. Nothing like a pleasant winter day with with snow on the ground, clear blue sky, walking the trails along the shoreline or a crisp fall day with the leaves in full color, enjoying a warm spring morning by the lake or picnicking in the summer. A relaxing and peaceful place to be.

This is a really nice park to walk your dog( good dog friendly tree lined paths) nice meandering bike paths too. I love to bring my camera when the Lilly pads are in bloom! What a wonderful site to behold. The Wave Pool is nice too, but now that our kids are older we just enjoy all that the park and river have to offer.

We visit this metro park just to walk the paths. Beautifully maintained and full of information. Great place for birdwatchers in particular!

Since I retired I've been walking on the bike path right along the shoreline 2 to 3 times a week and I just feel so blessed! The views of the lake are spectacular! Plus you can see the lotus flower beds in the lake. These flowers are so huge and just beautiful. This park has some of the largest flower beds in Michigan. Besides that I've seen several deer and plenty of swans. The park has several picnic areas and numerous playgrounds for children. This is a lovely park, no doubt about it.

It's pretty hard to find a bad park in Michigan probably impossible if you are on the water. All parks are tree filled and well maintained.

I run at this park all of the time. There is a great bike path that is probably 4-5 miles. Great scenic shoreline. Great for picnics, couples, families

The park is very nice affording a splendid view of Lake Erie. The nature trails are very nice too. A lot of wild life can be spotted here. We saw 3 deer on the nature trail. There is also a nice bike path that goes through the park. An admission is required for entry. They have a wave pool that is open in the summer too.

I go to this metro park for the boat launch and it is nice. The price for a year pass is nice ($30).

The park is rather small and there is not much commercialism. That's the way I like it. Last Time we were there, a church was conducting a baptism in the lake. It was a beautiful service.

Grew up near this park and have been going there for many years with my children. Love the wave pool. Concession stand has good food at reasonable prices. For many years we made it a tradition to spend the day there and watch the fireworks at night.

This is the closest park from our home to one of the Great Lakes. It's simply a nice place to picnic and relax, taking the views of Erie.

This is a great Metropark for a day of family fun. The Wave pool is awesome and the play area for children is great. They have a place you can buy food or bring a nice picnic and enjoy it as a family. Fishing, hiking, boating, you name it Lake Erie has it all.....really is a very large park.

We go to Lake Erie Metro Park 4 or 5 times a week to walk our dog. They have 1 trail that you can bring dogs on, and another one that you cannot. They also have a biking trail that we use quite often in the spring | Summer | Fall. We see deer almost everytime we visit the park. Although you are not supposed to, we see many people feed the deer, so they are very tame. The best time to visit this park is in August when the Lotus bloom.
