Located right off 22 Mile, just East of Van Dyke freeway. You can park and walk over the catwalk, like I did with my kids. They waved at the traffic down below and even got passerby's to honk! Even a few big truckers! I remember doing that when I was a kid!

While this can happen anywhere, Sterling Heights Parks & Rec doesn't seem to have a grasp on accountability.

Fast forward to a week later, the same aggressive dog is coming to this dog park. Note to dog owners - if your dog can't meet another dog safely off leash, then don't bring them to an off leash dog park. Needless to say, we will not be renewing our membership here.

I've had dogs my whole life but never…read moretook my dogs to a dog park before because of so many negative stories I've heard from other dog owners, breeders, and friends. I was a little hesitant to buy a membership but I thought it would be a good way to socialize my 10 month year old pup with other dogs since Covid canceled puppy obedience classes and trainings. I was worried about the other dogs being aggressive or possibly attacking my pup from all the horrific stories I heard. However, it's been such a great experience so far. All of the dog owners are responsible and all the dogs have been very friendly. I've felt very safe taking my dog here and she loves it! There is an fenced in area for small dogs and another one for large dogs. You can enter the park off from Livernois next to the nursing home or get there from the Troy Trail. Membership is $35 for residents or $45 for non residents. You get a key scan card and scan the card to unlock the gate to enter. There is a small pavilion with a few benches which is nice. My only complaint is that there needs to be more shade! A few big trees need to be planted because it's too hot in the summertime for the dogs. There is not even 1 tree! Tip: Bring your own water because the water fountains are still not running due to Covid.

After a long school day, we took the kids to Innovation Hills Park, and they had a blast! The park…read morewasn't too busy, and the kids explored everything, from the playground to the jungle gym. I loved the artificial turf--it keeps the area looking nice year-round. This park has everything--playgrounds, walking trails, a serene area with ducks, and even bathrooms.

Let's get this part out of the way - The park itself? Amazing. It is modern, has plenty of options,…read moreis well maintained, and has some great nature paths outside of the playground area. In an area that features many great playgrounds and parks to take your family to, Innovation Hills has always stood out. There is a lack of options for younger children though (no infant swings?). The three stars? One of the new features of this park is the addition of Park Mobile being introduced for the main parking lot. Signs everywhere reminding you that you better have paid your $1.50 an hour! There is of course a free dirt lot across the busy road for your convenience. Or a parking 'annual pass' you can purchase from the Rochester Hills website. Our society struggles with the concept of 'the third place'. Parks and playgrounds are a haven for families and a community builder outside of work and home. What in the world is the motivation behind suddenly charging for parking? 1 - The City of Rochester Hills wants to prioritize park access for its citizens? Charging for parking doesn't keep out non-residents and in fact just causes Rochester Hills citizens to pay more for something they are already paying for. 2 - The park is often extremely crowded so charging for parking may reduce visitor count? If this was the motivation I am confident this strategy is not working. 3 - We want to encourage more families to park in the dirt lot across the street and attempt to cross a highway? I have more faith in humanity than that. Oh, I think I got it! To quote Tim Robinson's sketch 'The Driving Crooner' - "I gotta figure out how to make money on this thing..it's simply TOO GOOD!"

They have a play center with a table too. You can do some bird watching in the chairs by the window. This is a perfect spot for toddlers because it is safe and enclosed. My kids did pretty good.

I thoroughly enjoyed my wanderings at River Bends Park, lots of options for your activities while…read morevisiting. I was on a limited time crunch today, so I stuck mostly to the main, paved trails (happily many sections of this path still ran through the woods); but there are hiking and/or biking trails branching off in many directions all throughout the property. Make sure to watch the trail signs, as some are for bikers only. River Bends is also a dog friendly park, note that they must remain on a maximum of a 6ft leash at all times. While I visited today with only my pupperoni, River Bends park is great for kids of all ages. There are a multitude of play areas for children, great to help wear out their energy. There is also a disc golf course that winds throughout the park, supplying players with beautiful nature views. You could also enjoy a BBQ on one of their charcoal grills, relax at a picnic table, or pavilions if you have a large group; nature watch on a nearby bench, our even try out a game of horseshoe. The park appeared well maintained, for the most part; although a few signs could use some repair. They have restroom facilities, and port-a-pottys available for use (although I did not enter them to speak of their cleanliness). You can find trash receptacles around every bend, so there's no excuse for lazy littering, and there is a main sign available showing you all of the trails and their difficulties. You can find this sign posted off to the side of the parking lot; which itself, had plenty of available spots. Definitely a favorite park to stop and enjoy, highly recommend.

The path is a very nice, leisurely walk with plenty of trees and plants and nature to discover. It also has a couple of bridges to walk over and benches to sit on along the way as you traverse through. There's a nice covered area with benches to sit and relax as you're enjoying the scenery surrounding you on the path. I thought the playgrounds were pretty cool. I love the soft, cushiony surface that the kids can run and play on. Parents don't have to worry about scrapes and bruises! The building for the restrooms looks nice, although I didn't venture inside to see what they're like. There's a small picnic pavilion that families and couples and friends can enjoy. Oh, and they have cool looking bike racks to lock your bike up if you choose! All in all a very nice gem to visit.
