Pleasant Grove Recreation Area — Attraction in Livingston

It is a beautiful place to spend the entire day! The water is very clean and clear. A $5.00 charge to park for the day is very reasonable, but on a hot summer weekend, you have to get there early because it fills up quickly!

You brought back awesome memories and definitely Some unique vibes in that space one could take advantage of. Everyone respected each other's space even though there were many different families and groups! Bathrooms weren't bad either. Hopefully people will start respecting the space more and not leaving such trash which is not a...
