It's my favorite thing about living in Sterling Heights - seeing kids and teens out in nature doing what boys should be doing, instead of stuck at home glued to their phones or screens. They find many adventures along these trails and see wildlife similar to what I see driving 3 hours to our place up north. It's right in our backyard! They've always taken such good care of their parks. There's bike riding, kayaking, jogging, mountain bike trails, walking areas, and seriously the best nature you'll find within an hour and a half radius. The trails run all through Sterling Heights and end up in different parts of the city, or they'll lead you straight back to the Dodge Park or their awesome nature center!

I really dislike having to give parks imperfect ratings, as getting out into nature in any capacity…read morecan bring peace, but sometimes they just don't work for my personal needs. Clinton River Heritage park was quite small, so not great for hiking or walking my doggo (I prefer avoiding sidewalks on main roads, and that would be the only nearby option to lengthen my walk). My second issue was that, once you crossed the main bridge, you pop out into a decent field, but it's directly behind a set of apartments, attached to their parking lot; not really a scenic view. That being said, Clinton River Heritage Park is still a very pretty sliver of nature in the middle of a busy city area. The views of the River are beautiful, and there are plenty of seats to sit and enjoy watching the wildlife. We came across some giant maple leaves, truly impressive, gave me a laugh comparing them to my pup. You have an available viewing dock, canoe/kayak drop in (although it looks to be currently closed), picnic tables, charcoal grills, benches, restroom, trash receptacles and a small children's play area. The parking lot is small, but honestly perfect for the needs of the park, and the cleanliness of the area was acceptable (although I cannot speak for the restrooms as I did not enter them). Overall, I think this is a great small park for the residents of the attached neighborhood/s, and great for River watching, but didn't quite fulfill my need for exercise and dog walking.

Holland Ponds is the best place for hiking! My friends and I love coming here with our dogs because…read morethere is a river through the entire place, which means plenty of opportunities for the dogs to swim! The park is also connected to the apple trail, which leads to Yates Cider Mill, so it's honestly the best place to spend an afternoon! The dogs have fun, the humans have fun, you can take a mid-hike break to fuel up with cider and donuts, and then head back through Holland Ponds! The only downside to the park is that it's close to a shooting range of some sort, far enough away that you can't see anything, only hear things, so for dogs that spook a bit towards fireworks and the like, they will be able to hear sounds that might make them a bit jumpy.

I like this park for many reasons, but mainly because it has that true nature feel to it with so…read moremuch to look at and take in as you walk and meander it's trails. The main trail is gravel, but there are areas that veer off here and there along the way that take you off the beaten path and into some 'real' nature trails. With so much to offer, you can venture off and explore the foliage, ponds, wildflowers, rabbits, birds, frogs and the elusive (at least for me so far) Blue Herons. In fact this park is a Blue Heron Rookery and a nesting area for them as well. Look up into the trees while walking along their nesting areas because they build their large 3 foot by 3 foot nests high in the trees out of twigs. There are signs as well warning the public not to enter their sacred nesting areas. It's very quiet, serene and even a tad rustic compared to the other parks in the county. It does have benches along the way, but the grasses in mid summer have grown up and around some of them making them not so easy to sit on. They also have a small pavilion that once had a picnic table, but the table is now gone, so it's 'just a pavilion' hoping for another table one day so it can once again have visitors sit under it's covered and shady rest area. But why not carry one of those fold up chairs and heck, bring a picnic bag lunch and enjoy a quiet meal as you feel like you're in the middle of nowhere. Make sure to look up and side to side as you're traversing the trail because there are things to look at all around if you take the time to explore. You're so close to the city, yet so far away when you're in the middle of this park so take the time to enjoy all of it's offerings. There are areas where you can get a nice picturesque glimpse of the lily pads in the water and listen to the frogs croaking their tunes as you meander along the path. If you like the type of setting where you seem one with nature and you like a calm, serene setting, this park is a must to visit. Who knows, maybe you'll get lucky and see one or more of the Blue Herons. If not, there's always next time because this peaceful park is worth exploring when you want to get away from the city grind.

I wanted to try a new place for hiking around me one day because I felt like I had been everywhere…read morenearby when I found Hawk Woods! It feels so close to the highway, yet also completely secluded from it as well. There was only one part of the hike where I felt like I could hear the highway sounds, but otherwise, it felt like a cool little sojourn into nature. The overall size of the park is very small, I believe the outer loop was about one mile MAX, so definitely a very quick, very easy hike you can do! You can honestly do the loop a few times if you so please as well. Very little elevation gain, perfect for all skill-levels, some variance in scenery as you go about the hike, dog-friendly, and filled with little nature, educational signs throughout. A delight and a perfect way to do a quick little getaway into nature!

My best advise is not to wait. The place was very clean and plenty of lifeguards for everyone's water safety.

Kids loved the wave pool the best and the water slides the least. Lazy River was good too.

It appeared as though they still had to thaw/warm up their ingredients? A customer asked for a hot dog and was told the buns had to thaw. The customer said "Okay, just give me the hot dog without the bun then." For no table inside, the wait time is also horrifying. I waited for around 30 minutes for essentially expensive cold food. I ordered bosco sticks but the cheese wasn't even melted. 2 sad blocks of cheese for $5. I think the shack would benefit from keeping orders away from the customers. It is a pain watching somebody stare at all the orders in front of them and then to not see food until 10 minutes after. I almost began to wonder if my order was on the counter at all after waiting so long, maybe they accidentally threw it away...? Luckily I received my food, of course. I do feel bad for the staff. Numerous customers leaned against the counter and kept giving their two cents. I was frustrated too, but it's ill-mannered to take it out on the staff. Besides the concession stand, which is the smallest part of the part, respecting most people go to pools to swim rather than eat, the rest of the waterpark is lovely!
