Island Park — Attraction in Ypsilanti Charter Township

Island Park has great scenery. Its great location for hosting a bday party during summer. Lovely scenes of river flowing past and covered with trees. Makes it a great location for early morning / evening running. It feels so good while running along the river path. It has few bridges across the river that flows there.

There is a ton of goose feces all over the place. And the bridge that goes over the river away from Cedar Bend is sketchy at best. There are few holes in the planks that a dog's paw could easily go through. The jungle gym is OK, there is a substantially better one just a few mins walk...
