    This is a really great place to get some outdoor exercise. We came on a Saturday and got our steps in. There's tons of parking and most of the path is shaded so it doesn't really matter what time you go. There are public bathrooms in the interior by the play ground, and port o potty's around the track. There always seems to be an event going as well, so you'll hear some great music. Great alternative to the tourist spots around Savannah

    This place has everything you need for an active lifestyle! A walking trail with a special lane for bikers, a skate park for daredevils, and a baseball field for future Yankees. I didn't have time to check them out, but it's an absolute must-visit!

    My kids and I love this park! As a parent, it is essential to keep a list of parks or places for my kids to run free and let out their overabundance of energy. Lake Mayer Park (LMP) is the perfect place to get some fresh air and do whatever their little big hearts desire. Really. It has so many options and has almost everything! - Parking - There are two parking lots. One on the outer loop, as soon as you enter the park and the other lot is on the island in the lake, by the playground and sports areas. - Park Amenities - LMP offers so many options for just about any type of sport. There is a 1-1.5 mile loop (I provide a range because my Fitbit tracked it at around 1-ish mile, but according to the website, it's 1.5 miles). As soon as you enter the park from E Montgomery St, you can park in the lot and I suggest parking there if you want to go around the track. If you want to access all other types of sports, continue on the mini roundabout around the running man statue and continue on the overpass to get to the island. Park amenities on the outer loop include: - Paved Track with two sides (padded and paved), complete with a "Health Trail" fitness course (same as the one you find at Tom Triplett Park in Pooler and JF Gregory Park in RH). There are benches and picnic tables along the track - Boat Ramp - Dog Exercise Area Park amenities on the island: - Restrooms - Playground - Community Center - Screened pavilions (you probably have to rent these) - Tennis courts - Basketball courts - Baseball/Softball Field - Volleyball Play Area - Skateboarding ramp - Open field next to basketball courts I'm sure there are a few other things not mentioned here, but this is what I personally observed. - What we did - We usually go around the track at least once and then my kids always like to play for a bit at the park. There are two areas in the playground and tons of stuff to keep them well entertained. The only thing again, is that whoever designed the parks in Savannah, and maybe in GA obviously didn't think it through and did not incorporate shaded areas on the park into their design. Enter le sigh.... - Heads Up - *No pets allowed with the exception of ADA trained dogs, both on the outer loop and on the island. However, like previously mentioned above, there is a dog exercise area on the outer loop. *Also, watch out for duck poop. Those birds are sure full of it! Their poop is everywhere, but thankfully only around the beginning of the trail. Did I mention there are tons of wildlife there? This past visit, we saw a turtle out of water, on the grass. We've never seen one out of the water here before. There are tons of ducks all along the trail by the water (but away from the track, thankfully). Every time we visit, we have a great time. The mission gets accomplished and my kids get their exercise in and so do I from chasing after them around the track. The kids sleep so well after an afternoon spent there! And frankly, I do too!

    Lake Mayer is a great place for my family! We love walking at the lake! My son enjoys the skate park and the playground! We even did a geocache here!

    This is a beautiful park and awesome jogging and fitness trail. Only HUGE downside is they've closed their restrooms and there is only a gross ports potty that looks like it's never been cleaned. The trail is 1.5 miles. They have tennis courts, a boat ramp and I guess the lake is fishing. They also have a tiny box with food items that says, "leave what you can, take what you need" a neat concept. Reminds of of what they did on the walking dead.

    Skateboard rink is complete

    I mainly come to this park to walk the circuit around the artificial lake. It is conveniently located off of the Montgomery Cross exit on the Truman. It is a well used park with tennis courts and skateboard rink. Numerous birds flock here. They have made some renovations in the last few years.

    Getting fit. Beautiful trail!

    This is a great walking path. It is well shaded and inviting. I felt safe because everything was open and no little closed-off areas that I have observed at some walking trails! It is a great place for families as there are a variety of spaces to enjoy. There is a skate pad, tennis courts, disc golf, pavilion for cooking out, playground, fitness stops along the trail, ... I will be utilizing this park often.

    I come here everytime I'm visiting family! I think it's 1.3 miles around and along the path are different excercise stops. Really pretty during sunset. Great for families, picnics, running meets, birthday parties, etc. There's also a skate park, playground, tennis courts, disc golf, and grills

    Found it relaxing and peaceful. Ample parking and had seating. Would have stayed longer but rain came but will return soon.
