Cascade Peace Park — Attraction in Cascade Charter Township

I really like this park. It's fairly large, there are quite a few animals - including lots of deer! - and lots of different types of plants to see, ranging from forest to more open fields, with tons of hills and benches to sit on scattered throughout the park. The trails are some of the best marked I have seen in the GR area, and there are many paths to choose from. It was virtually empty when I went mid afternoon on a beautiful day My only criticism is that I believed there would be more areas closer to water, while the parts near running water appeared to be unreachable from the trails.

The bugs are so worth it dealing with though if u have bug spray then you dont want to pass up these beautiful, quiet,...

This is a truly peaceful park. Walk miles and miles of trails through varying landscapes of hills and Prairie. Wildlife abounds. A barred owl met my acquaintance the other day. There are two entrances to this park — one off Grand River Drive & one off of Bolt. It is serene and undisturbed by traffic noises. I don’t believe there are any restrooms, however. The trail is well-marked and has color-coded posts as you go along. Many dog walkers enjoy this park, and at times dogs are off-leash, but each one I’ve seen off leash is quite well behaved and...
