Besides the fact it was a perfectly beautiful sunny day, this was not worth the gas to drive here,…read moremuch less the $7 each to get in. It is definitely not a lake, but a decent size pond. You are not allowed past thigh deep in the water unless you pay an extra $10 an hour to do the obstacle course. Also, parking is not clearly marked. Small kids did seem to have a good time, so it might be worthwhile for families with little ones. Since Fishers residents get in free, it might also be a good dunning spot for you. They do allow outside food and coolers, if you want to pack a lunch, and offer coolers with drinks for sale at an inflated price. If you do decide to go, make sure to fill out the waver online ahead of time.

I went by my self to try this place before I brought any grandkids. 1 + is that you are allowed to…read morebring in outside food coolers and toys of floaties basically all the stuff that you would want to bring with you and I do suggest you do so. I asked if there was a place where they do sell drinks and snacks and I was told they do over by the Porta Potty but I really didn't see anywhere that these items were being sold Maybe there was someone back in the kayak shed they had those things available but I would just recommend you bring your own. They only have porta potty available which I personally not a fan of. The Sandy Beach area where I was laying had so many bees and wasps. I happen to have some bug spray in my bag so sprayed myself and the area where I was laying at and my towels in an effort to keep them away. Worked for short amount of time. The sand is very hard and uncomfortable. Bring chairs. It's $7 per person to get in if you're not a fisher's resident if your Fisher's resident it's free and probably more affordable if you have the group of kids because it is $10 extra for an hour of the kayak use and $10 extra to go beyond the roped area probably because they have this inflated play area that's tethered outside that roped area. They have a lifeguard on duty. Fill out the waiver before you go. If you have the money and bring your own food and drinks it could be a nice little outing for the family. If your not a resident of fishers though I'm sure there are more enjoyable options for $7, $10 or $27 per person. Also be prepared to bring cartloads to be able to enjoy or be comfortable.

Mansfield Park might have been a wonderful park "back in the day". You can see there is a pier and…read morean observation deck by the pond. There is a baseball park, former tennis courts, a couple shelters, a nice parking lot, and a playground. Everything looks pretty colorful. But when you look closer, you see the tennis court posts for holding the nets have been removed. The fence surrounding the courts is also leaning. The painted wood on the pathway and benches is peeling. The metal spiral staircase in the observation tower is rusting. I also question that the playground is sunken so close to a pond. I didn't see anything for drainage, so I imagine there is a high probability that the area holds water after heavy rains. Maybe? Anyway, the park could be restored with a bit of money and some manhours to bring it back to the condition it once was. Until then, it seems like the amenities are neglected. Review #1045

Morse Park and Beach is a lovely park with lots of amenities on Morse Lake. The park is quite large…read morewith beach front, trees and green areas. The grounds are well manicured. My granddaughters loved the upscale playground with lots of climbing structures. The swings are suitable for all ages. Various merry-go-rounds were favorites. There are many nice benches, picnic tables and grills throughout the park. Accessible walkways meander through the park and across the water front. Fishermen were taking advantage of the early morning fishing along the waterfront. There are a number of places to dock your boat or launch your kayak within the park. There are a number of picnic pavilions along with the Osprey Pavilion. The Osprey Pavilion is an air conditioned building that can be reserved for holding meetings or events. There is a deck that overlooks the lake from the building. The deck needs some work. There is a beach that charges $6 per person (under 1 are free) to enter and play/swim in the lake. We had planned on letting the kid's swim, however they do not open if the air temperature is below 70 degrees and it was 68 degrees. The enclosed beach area and fence looks like it needs some updating and care. There are public restrooms that were nice except that there was no soap during our visit. There is a lot of green space to play ball sports and there is also a frisbee course and volleyball court at the park. There is no charge to enter the park (just the beach area). There is plenty of parking in several lots including accessible parking. I'm guessing that the park is crowded on weekends.
