They have small, large and an area for shy/lazy dogs. All of these areas are massive!!! The bathroom by the dog park is just a porta potty but in the actual park across the street are building bathrooms. The park is always super well landscaped. The trails aren't marked very well but if you walk from picnic area one (by the office) to the entrance and back it's about 1 miles and paved. I personally haven't tried any camping there or the beach but I have heard it is super nice. The beach is dog friendly too!

They do need to work a little better on parking signage! That would be the only feedback since it is labeled for boats and seems like that is the only type of parking that can take place in the lot. So we drove in circles a little bit, but then saw a park worker who was able to point us in the right direction. We also came across park staff on the beach and they were very nice as well.

On the north end of the park, there's a large play structure with swings, another swingset with a sand play area, a children's splash pad water feature and restrooms. The restrooms, in particular, are very helpful for families with younger kids, or visitors who are picnicking. The south end of the park includes a parking lot, the Hales Corners swimming pool, a rock climbing structure, and a baseball diamond. The south end also features tennis courts, a veteran's memorial and the park is adjacent to the Hales Corners Public library and the Ben Hunt cabin. The park stretches out over a large field space extending to the west, and crosses a small stream to another parking area and a large open hill often used for sledding. In the winter, the Park is home to the Allison Dudek ice skating rink. This summer the Hales Corners Park was host to the Sprecher beer garden, and the park is also home to Hales Corners' 4th of July festivities and fireworks, and Hales Corners National Night Out. Overall, it's a great park!

It's so close you will "yelp" out of surprise because they come so close. They have rentable rooms, my cousin rented one for her brother's memorial and I will say this is a very nice and soothing spot for a memorial with all of the nature surrounding. We took a little walk over to the pier and all of the lily pads are really pretty to look at. There was a small kids/learning area up front and some snake terrariums, too. I only explored the one section, I am sure there is much more to explore. This is a really nice option if you are looking for something to memorialize a loved one. They have bricks all over with little messages honoring people who have passed.

Clean restroom with pit toilets. Picnic tables. Benches. We enjoyed a 3.2 mile hike here. The "red loop" is a 2.3 mile loop to/from the parking lot. We wanted to cover a bit more distance -- so we added a portion of the green loop and the lollipop loop to the observation overlook. (Total distance was 3.2 miles with the amended route). The red loop is the park service as "short and narrow with steep terrain. You'll pass through pine plantations and hardwood forest." We particularly liked this segment, shaded and with the scent of pine. It also appears that some recent work has been done to clear underbrush. The segment of the "green loop" that we did is described as "a roller coaster of hills that you won't soon forget." We found this to be accurate. The trails are well-maintained, with excellent signage along the way. There are regular signs that identify where you are on maps, as well as regular blazes. There are regular benches if you want to stop for a snack. Much of these trails are at least partially shaded with only limited segments and times (noon!) that are in full sun. We saw a fair number of other hikers, perhaps a total of 10-12, even on a Wednesday morning. We also saw a bit of wildlife -- a very fat turkey, butterflies, and bumblebees. (there are also supposed to be ticks, so be careful). Two thing prevent me from giving a 5-star rating. (1) park policy allows pets on the hiking trails if they're on a leash. However, all SIX dogs that we saw were off-leash until the owner saw us. In one case, a large dog came running towards us (with no owner in sight) while we were eating our lunches. Thankfully, he obeyed when my husband told him to sit. (Full disclosure. I'm rather afraid of dogs after having been bit). (2) the park also allows hunting, and suggestions to wear bright clothing and to inquire about hunting seasons. However, no park personnel were on-site and, signage suggested that there's a long-g-g hunting season (Sept 1 to end of May). (May 10, 2023).
