We loved this park!…read more The park itself has a large playground area (seen in photo) for bigger kids to run around. There is also a side, smaller area for toddlers with smaller slides, swings, climbing tubes, etc. Along the perimeter there is a traditional zip line and one with a chair. This is also connected to a trail that goes along the Colorado River that has very nice views and is quite long!

Seemingly all the times we've been here the other groups of people have been very mellow. I mean, yes they're into their own get - togethers but the hootin' and hollerin' you'd expect from other beaches? Not so much here. The lake current is nice and strong; you could float on your back down the river if you wanted too. I got a good workout in there just crawling around and things. Like I said, most of the river is not as deep as after a rainfall. Recommended!

The park has bathrooms, picnic tables under a large pavilion, a play ground, and a sandy beach. There's even an outdoor shower for cleaning off the sand when you're done. On an August weekday around noon, there were multiple families at the park to lounge and swim. The bridge provides ample shade for sitting on the beach or swimming in the water. The water was clear and looked clean. Some kids had tied a rope swing to the bridge and were swing jumping into the water - so fun! Yuma is HOT and frankly quite ugly, without much to offer the passerby outside of food, fuel, and the prison (also worth a stop!!). Gateway Park is an exception - a beautiful spot and a great break point for the weary traveler. Bring swimsuits - you won't just want to dip your feet in!

When we arrived at Mittry Lake they were already there waiting for us and by the time we walked from the car to the ramp the kayaks were ready for us to hop in. This was the first time for a couple of us so it was really nice that Leto's made sure that we knew the basics and made sure to answer all of our questions before we took off. The lake is beautiful! Very peaceful and relaxing! It's really nice at the boat ramp, there is a huge covered picnic area with several tables and bbqs. The only thing I would change about our recent kayaking trip with Leto's is upping the 2 hour rental that we had and reserving them for longer! Such a great company and amazing experience. 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend!

The kayaks were of excellent quality and much better than typical rentals. Owner Dale was also super helpful and accommodating for us. We had a super fun time kayaking at the south end of the Colorado River with lots of interesting channels making you feel like you were exploring the jungle of the Amazonas at times. This is the most fun place I think I have ever kayaked. If you want to have a great time kayaking, this is the place for sure and if you need to rent this is the place to get rentals.

Located in the northeast corner of the Hilton Garden Inn property, Pivot Point sits above Gateway Park. The parking lot says it is only for the Hilton Garden Inn Convention Center so we probably broke some trespassing law. (Thankfully, the Territorial Prison no longer takes inmates.)

They have library, billards room, and cards room (currently closed~Covid). Laundry. You can park here for a year for $2100+electric. They have a mail room. Lots of activities precovid.
