Presque Isle Beach — Attraction in Millcreek Township

We're tourists. Swam out a little bit to watch the sunset, as you do and come back after and there's a 'guard' standing there waiting for us.

Maybe train your people with some sensitivity or compassion since it's a people job. Pig. You would NEVER get this in florida, Georgia' or North Carolinas beaches. So glad that's what the tax dollars...

It’s just amazing what God and nature can do. Looking out into the great beyond and just seeing a sea and sky of blue that blends together over the horizon. It really is magical. The lake was a tad cold but Lake Erie in my experience is usually pretty cold and needs to rely on a hot day to make it more enjoyable. But the beach was clean also and I really love that too. Litter anywhere will ruin a place but you can tell the people and the parks and rec department really take care of this place. Glad I visited and excited to make it a...
