The tree covered paths are perfect for all weather and the cliff and water view is quite lovely especially in the fall. There is a newer pavilion with a seating area, a bathroom for when nature calls while you're out in nature and a couple of art pieces to admire during your stroll. During our most recent visit a week or two ago, the bathrooms were closed for the season. There is also plenty of parking available. We take our dog here for walks. They have free bags if you've forgotten to bring any. It's a great park neighborhood park!

There's an easy to get to parking lot which is next to the restrooms, tables, and the river. We have a senior dog who loves the water so it was perfect since the river was so close, we didn't have to go on a long hike to get him down there. The park is green and seems huge. It's not the prettiest park in the area, but definitely convenient.

The tennis and basketball courts look fresh and a new bed of wood chips were added to the children's playground. On the playground littles as young as 1 year old can enjoy a number of different kinds of equipment. They do have a baby and disability friendly swing available. However the entrance into the playground is NOT DISABILITY FRIENDLY. There is a short walking trail but beware of geese and their poo. I saw folks doing some leisurely fishing but not sure on those guidelines. The restrooms were interesting but I was surprised they were less maintained compared to the rest of the park. Dogs are welcome while on leash or on duty as service dogs.

They have a little pond that people can fish in, and there are lots of ducks swimming and walking around. They have a playground and a basketball court, which both seem well-kept. There's also a pavilion but I haven't used it so I'm not sure what amenities it has. There's a path around the pond, and while it's a very short loop, it's good for a slow, peaceful wander. There are benches around the path and next to the park under some trees. I'd recommend checking it out if you're looking for a small, chill, clean, quiet park.

Simpson Park Lake is my favorite local spot to kayak…read more Unloading: There is a circular dirt drive off of the parking lot where you can load and unload kayaks/paddleboards/canoes right at the boat launch area. The Lake: This is one of the best spots to kayak on the West side of St Louis. You can get about 3,000 meters from one loop around the lake, and there are usually very few people on the water. It is much quieter than Creve Coeur Lake. The water is calm and without motorized boats, other than trolling motors. There are often great blue heron and egrets in the water.

I'm a pretty good fisherman, but not that good. This park has an online website. Someone should and could have taken the time to post that info so that myself and others would know not to go there for fishing. Also, does the park open at 7:00 A.M., 8:00 A.M., or 4:00 A.M.? I have seen each of those times listed and do not know why the confusion. A disappointing waste of my time.

Not just busy, but... there are areas where it's difficult to walk or to cycle because there are so many people. The Boathouse (restaurant) is frequently closed.

We saw online that this place had a really cool playground, but when we pulled in, we only saw the lake. So we turned around, and found a different entrance... and a playground... just not the one we were looking for. Oh well, it was still fun for the little guy, and our dog enjoyed sniffing around. The playground was pretty clean, and we didn't experience anyone else except for 2 different joggers. There are two playgrounds: one for 5 years and older, and 4 years and younger. Since we were the only family, my little one got to enjoy both sides. We will try again another time, but for now, a nice option!
