I found it very nice place to visit. I was able to keep a close Eye on the kids while enjoying a little fishing. I know Idea there was so much to do there. Didn't get to experience the entire park, Everything we got to was enjoyable fun and clean. Nice raked beach. That starts out at 0 feet and gradually is deeper not sure how deep it goes. However estimate it is roughly 40 yds. By 50 yards out in to the water, all Enclosed with a net so while swimming yoy won't run into any aquatic life. Very nice in my opinion.

A beautiful public park bordered by lake Mendota and the Yahara river, with a pond, a couple shelters, playgrounds and a locks system for boats to move from Mendota to the Yahara.

It was pretty packed, no place to park.. driving around in circles. I used to come here as a child and feed the ducks with my dad… there wasn’t so many trees/bushes/shrubs; now there everywhere . You can barley look at the water without walking over the bushes. Pretty nice place to go on a weekend evening. Not when it’s so packed....

This is where lake Mendota meets the Yahara river; which crosses the isthmus when one is heading down stream towards Lake Monona. The locks will drop your boat five down to the level of the lower lake. Note the new hours Thursday-Sunday.

A picturesque area with views of the lake and benches to sit down and take it all in. You can also see the capital from the pier. Fishing is allowed on the pier. Free to enter.

Such a cool experience! We are very fortunate to have this in our lake system. Friendliest staff you could ever ask for.
