Unfortunately for us, we were so keen that we arrived a week early so only like 4 trees were in full bloom but the scenery was still beautiful nonetheless. There was a bridge running through the middle and a man-made pond as well (which was inhabited by ducks). Also plenty of benches across the walkways for ppl to sit. The bell was a nice touch in the middle of the park and the aesthetics are very calming and serene. As an FYI, there's tons of ppl taking vids and pics at this park. Location-wise very convenient because it's also situated near Square One shopping center nearby!

We visited on Labour Day to reconnect with nature and decompress a bit…read more As expected the park was very busy but once we started walking on the nature trails, we didn't encounter too many people on our journey around the lake. It was so relaxing walking by the water and through the forest. The weather was perfect, not too hot and not too cold - just right! We walked by many families fishing at the river and also noticed the tree top trekking/zip line above. We want to return to try this next time! There were families having BBQ's at picnic sites which were reserved (guessing you can book them online/through the park ahead of time). They also had a splash pad and pool - wish we brought our bathing suits!! They also had an ice cream truck positioned close to the splash pad and you know we had to get some dipped cones after our hike in the woods. Bring your bills/coins - the truck is cash only. Note, if you have one of the Canada 150 park passes, it does not work for free entry here. For entry for four adults we paid $26. All in all, Heart Lake is a lovely place to visit super close to Brampton.

(varies) The sandy area is quite large, lot's of room to spread out. The water is pretty clean, and is a nice temperature. You can also rent paddle boats and canoes and such for additional fees. They also have a large water slide for the kids to go on. Unfortunately, for some strange reason the day we went it was closed which disappointed the kids. This is a nice clean area to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and can enjoy the beach. 4/5

The park is nestled in a residential area and easy to get to. There are no parking fee or admission fee. The bridge is nice and the single trail connects to the Credit Valley Conservation research facility. We walked till the trail ended and turned back. It wasn't busy when we went on a Sunday afternoon and you can go off the main trail to get up close to the water where some people were fishing. There is a playground that stems off the trail, you have to go up a flight of stairs, and it leads you to a residential area. I didn't like the playground as the ground was covered in sand rather than the usual woodchips. This is a small park that is close by, the walk is pretty flat so it was great for my toddlers. We would definitely go back and go on the trail all year round.

There's also a playground. Though well serviced by roads (not all conservation areas are), the trails are badly maintained with many potholes.

They're open daily mid-June to early September, and weekends mid-May to mid-June and mid to end September.

"Marie Curtis Park is named after the Longbranch Reeve (a small village) Mayor Marie Curtis and is one of the few beaches in North America named after a female community leader. This park was created in the late 1950s to help control flooding after Hurricane Hazel nearly swept local homes in the area out into Lake Ontario. Throughout this park, you can find an abundance of wildlife and native plants. There is a playground, wading pool, a public swimming beach, picnic spots and walking trails including a connection to the Waterfront Trail. You will always find something to do at Marie Curtis Park." There was a nice spot we parked near so we sat for a bit and watched the birds. A young girl and her grandparents arrived with bread and it didn't take long for all the birds to come over. There are a couple of piers and beaches. It's a cute park ... we'll be back!
