The downtown Burlington is visible from the park. There's also tiny beach like sand area available. The adjacent park is also very popular among locals. The area bbq stations setup. Multiple playground areas with slides, swing, and marry go round. The park has two parking areas. One closer to main park, another one is further in, closer to the tree house. Both are paid parkings, but when we went on Sunday, we didn't have to pay. There are couple of volleyball fields next to the treehouse. We saw a bunch of people playing. The treehouse itself was underwhelming. Still it is a beautiful park to visit.

What a nice park! It really has everything. Hiking trails by the river, playground, sports court,…read moreand the view! The playground has 2-3 sections so it's not over crowded at the same area. Along the hiking trail, there are equipments for physical therapy. The day we went was chilly but still quite a lot of people biking and hiking. The treehouse is cool but I think it will have better view in summer. Lots graffiti inside tho. I didn't like that. Parking lot on site (kiosk to pay fee?)

On lovely Lake Champlain, the park possesses northeastern prettiness that could be offensive to haters. Sailboats. Bike paths. Attractive people pretending not to notice sunsets. And, there is always... A jogger. Someone reading poetry or prose. A couple sharing a blanket in a way that says they likely use summering as a verb. Burlington occasionally leans performative crunchy. Waterfront Park itself remains kinda immune to that. Open. Calm. Genuinely beautiful. It is the kind of place you might hear conversations about niche wine bars or an old-money family friend's lake house where everyone wears cashmere beside open water. Go around sunset. Bring something overpriced in a tote. Stare at the water as though you have inherited generational property disputes in coastal Maine. Perfect evening, darliiiiiiiiing.

Check out what is probably the best park in Burlington. It sits next to the water obviously…read more Waterfront Park offers great views of Lake Champlain among other things. Great for getting a bit of exercise. There's lots to do around here as far as entertainment such as the ECHO Leahy Center, along with bars, restaurants, and stuff. Big park along the lake is a great way to describe it. It's conveniently located close to the Amtrak station. This is also close to the ECHO Leahy Center science museum, so it's close to lots of things. Has a lot of great views of the water and everything. Lots of room for dogs to run around and whatever. A bike path goes through it. This makes a great ride for those wanting to get some views. A few benches for those needing a breather. There's an ice cream place that's open in summer. Of course it's by the lake. There's not a beach but you can walk along it though. Has a lot of great things in and around it. It's a pretty big park and it's not crowded usually. There's lots of rooms for biking, walking, and whatever.

It's not a really flat walk, but nothing too steep or difficult. Just enough to break a sweat! The parking area we were at had enough parking for maybe 4 cars. The road is a well maintained dirt road, not too pothole ridden but there were a few here and there. The road is also a beautiful walk, I would love to walk on it everyday if I lived here! I really like the forest itself, interesting but also calm and peaceful. Saw some squirrels and a few little frogs. A interesting flower, I'm not sure what type or if it was just dying? I took a picture of it! Come check it out and enjoy the woods for a little while!

There are a couple of benches or you can sit on the wall. And around the corner to the south, there is a trail that takes you down to the Winooski River. But tonight, way too many mosquitoes to make that trip worth while. Instead, I stayed at the peak and took these pictures. [Review 18502 overall - 101 in Vermont - 2024 of 2022.]

I love the ratio of equipment for the age of my kids--plenty of baby/toddler swings and slides. Also little rocking ride on equipment. The only thing that could make it a little better for us would be a swing for special needs kids as my older daughter can't sit safely in a regular swing due to her needs. But we make do with what is there very nicely :) The grounds are super well kept and part of a larger park which includes a baseball and soccer (I think) field. I am kind of obsessed with the beautiful flower garden that they have in the parking lot. I would love to be able to steal their gardener for a day to help me make something similar. There is a pool as well with a waterslide. We've never actually used the pool but it very popular and always crowded. There is also a skate park for older kids which is really cool. At least it looks cool--I don't know the first think about skateboarding. I am always impressed by how respectful the skaters seem to be about safety rules. It looks like a lot of fun. Anyhow, this is a really nice park with great shade on hot days. There are always lots of super friendly people there to chat with as well.
