Rented the pavilion here for a graduation party. The park was very well maintained - grounds, beach, picnic tables, grills, and bathrooms were all above expectations. The staff were pleasant and accessible for any questions/assistance needed as they were out actively maintaining the amenities and easy to find at any time. It would be ideal if the pavilion was on the other end of the lawn space with tables/grills so that it's closer to the beach - it's not a far walk at all, but if you're having a get together at the pavilion, your time at the beach will be more of a dedicated beach time rather than coming and going from the pavilion more frequently, so the gathering will feel a bit split if there's people at the beach and pavilion, but that also means it's close to parking to move your picnic supplies in/out, wheelchair accessible, and near restrooms, so the location does have it's benefits as well. We had a fantastic time and will certainly be back - even with out of state plates, the rate is worth it for the well maintained park...
Read moreI just recently moved to chicopee and my step daughters came all the way from Pennsylvania so I figured we should go have some fun with the fam in our new town so we took a lyft to meet up with family and friends so we didnt have to walk on a 90 degree 4th of july day. We live 10 mins away. This was 11:30 am we got to the parking lot bit it was full but We didnt have to park. We got droped off to meet up with family already inside and they would have brought us back after but some guy stoped us at the gate flaged down the lyft driver as he was driving away and made him bring us back home. No drop offs Only walk ins are welcome. Go away ....Are other family and friends inside also left so the girls didnt have to spend the 4th alone. we got charged 20$ for the lyft. When it should of been a 9$ ride and the lyft driver could of said hey i was to bring you one way only i have other rides. Thank god he didnt !!! I will Never again will go to chiopee state park. Ruined are first chicopee...
Read moreAwesome place to go Trout fishing in early spring. Also fishing almost year round. Lots of nice trails for walking, hiking, and running. Also has some really fun bike trails throughout. Which can be fun for all levels of biking experience. Really nice place for cookouts, and family gatherings. Usually very well maintained, lots of parking, and access from main gate, as well as from outside of the park. Drive in, or walk in. Free to enter driving from Labor Day, to memorial day. Gates are closed in the winter season usually, but there's always access on foot. This place has just about everything, even wild life that can be seen in various places throughout. Deer mostly... There is a few to drive in from Memorial Day-Labor Day. Perfect place to walk your dog, get some exercise, and just be in Nature. One last bonus, the park is right next to Westover AFB. If you go during the airshow, you will get quite a treat!(Free)😄 Hope this was...
