Cute area, probably good for kids.
Parking is more than OOB for a tiny patch of sand and square of water. Cost is likely due to the 3 lifeguards and manager on duty. Why there needs to be more than 1-2 people working at one time is beyond me.

I received a refund and will not be...
Read moreDundee Park is one of my family's favorite local swimming spots, and for numerous reasons. The staff are always super friendly, clean restrooms and a large playground for the kids when they're not swimming in the roped off area of the river.
