This beats all the trails around Milwaukee- there I said it. It's really like extension of the lake…read morewalk paths that surround by this area in particular is honestly breathtaking and a reason why you think the Midwest is special even when you grew up in it. You're by the water, surrounded by butterfly gardens essentially. The flowers along the path are so pretty. The sidewalk and dedicated trails can keep you walking way father than you care to walk back. Perfect to get a couple of cute pictures. The beach you may end up walking past is really a resting pad for geese,ducks and seagulls so don't get any bright ideas. And if you're into collecting skeletons you may come across some crawfish which I saw a couple kids eagerly on the hunt for.

My husband and I were recently scouting great kayak locations and secondarily solid fishing locales…read morefor my dad. Our scouting trip brought us (aptly) to Scout Lake Park. For our purpose (kayaking), it's a no-go. It's has more of a pond vibe (both in size and wildlife) and just really isn't a good spot for kayaking (or paddleboarding for that matter). There are signs that say no boats (not sure if that includes kayaks). All in all, it's just not the best spot for it. There is a platform/dock that extends over the lake that we saw some folks fishing from it while we were there. There are a couple benches for sitting while fishing or you could easily bring your own chairs as well. I read that they stock the lake with fish so could be a nice spot for that. My dad is more into fishing from the banks and the foliage at the banks here makes this not the best spot for that either. That said it is a lovely lake and there's a pretty nice trail that extends around it that would be good for either biking or walking. We walked it while we were there and it doesn't take very long to traverse the entire loop around the lake and the views of the lily pad adorned lake were lovely. One note I'll make is that there was an unfortunate amount of trash in the lake near the doc which was such a bummer. But, beyond that sad note--a great spot for an evening stroll.
