This beautiful, sprawling park has something to offer just about everyone seeking to enjoy a day outdoors. You can swim at the beach area or rent/bring a canoe and traverse the river. There are mountain bike and walking trails with great views of the river. There are several play structures for the young ones as well as a volleyball court and a baseball diamond. If you want to host a gathering there are multiple pavilions to rent. In the winter there is cross country skiing available when the snow is deep enough. Also there are a couple sledding hills and a toboggan run, though I haven't seen that in use in awhile. But the best part of Burchfield park to me is the two championship level disc golf courses the park is home to. One is open and will satisfy any big arm golfer with multiple tee and pin placements on almost every hole to keep it interesting.

Read moreOne of the best county parks in the area! For almost any type of outdoor activity in the book without camping. New stuff at the pond, adding many more canoes, kayaks with a loading assist dock. New bike challenge area to the west when u enter to main entrance. Trails and MTN biking paths groomed well with attention. Noticed some other improvement under-going some face-over here and there. Then some tree trim/removal happening. Docks n fishing areas good throughout. Always loved biking n hiking through main trails since my kids were 4-5y to any of the heads through Eaton Rapids etc. Daylong canoe river trips are still available for drop off up river to flow back down to your destination or parked vehicle. Always a blast! Plan on whole day to make it best. Bring picnic swim gear and ALL your stuff. Don’t forget ALL the kids yours and theirs all the friends for the more the merrier much better! And...
