Lovely and calm beach! Highly recommend for a relaxing mini-break if you're looking for quiet and…read morethe sound of the waves. PROS: - There is no lifeguard and no swimming allowed, which means it's mostly child-free and thus has a much calmer environment than other area beaches. - I've visited twice (each on a weekday) during COVID and it's been not crowded and easy to socially-distance from the few other folks. - Immaculate bathrooms easily accessible from the beach. - Close, ample, and free parking. CONS: - More rocks than sand. if you're going to relax and watch the water, simply bring a camp chair and that won't matter. The rocks are really pretty, too! - No swimming allowed, so if you're looking to take a dip, head elsewhere. - Very little, if any, shade on the beach itself. Bring an umbrella.

The property is maintained by both the town and county. When you enter, there are soccer fields…read more They are used by a local youth soccer organization, so don't be surprised if it's crowded on a weekday evening during soccer season. Overall though, this park sits mostly empty. The property was formally owned by the Wendt family, but the county has not maintained the house, guest house, and stables. They are all Boarded up and painted white. I think in the 60s or 70s a restaurant operated in the main house. People come to this park for the quiet beach access. Between a cut in a hill, you can access the beach. It has twigs and stones scattered about. It's certainly not maintained or swept with a tractor. If there were any recommendation, it would be to sweep this beach with a tractor regularly, I think the park would really generate a lot more visitors. The bathrooms were in great condition and very clean. There is a mural on the exterior bathroom wall. And, this year, the county's bike-hike trail was entered through the park. You could travel to Bennett beach from there by using the trail. There are picnic benches. I was there recently where a small birthday party was held.

I've been waiting for the day that I didn't have to run for miles on Sweeney. It makes me kind of nervous to run so close to the road, and finally, runners and bikers alike have a place of their own. I live in the neighborhood across from the park, so I run through the neighborhood and just run across the street and bam, I'm on the path. Mayors Park is the start of the bike path which will eventually lead you to the bridge where you cross, run a quarter mile, and you're on the path to get you to the River/Niawanda Park. I also use Mayors Park as my warmup. Running to there and stretching before running any more is a great way to warm up. Plus, the park is hilly so running up and down the hills is kind of fun too. Why three stars then? Well, it can be so much better. It's such a simple park. There's a number of pavilions where people have parties and get-togethers but there's not much to actually do there, unfortunately. I'd love if there was a public garden or something that wouldn't draw that much of a crowd, but would at least be better than the eye sore it is now. Maybe new pavilions? A fun new park for the kiddos? The bike path was a start, but keep going! Also, a good place to meditate. Since it's generally empty, it's a nice place to find your calm.

Venture a few feet from the designanted "no swim zone" and "beach" area and you will find yourself in waist deep garbage and lake debris. It's bad. Really bad. What are we paying for? I opted to buy the State Park Pass which was around $75 to visit NYS parks that we, our families and countless generations have been paying for. Lucky us. Oh, and don't mind the giant sewage treatment plant within feet of this beach. Hahaha! You can't MAKE this stuff up. The jokes write themselves.

They have many picnic benches, a few shelters, tennis courts, hockey play area, (very cool), basketball court, swings, slides, monkey bars, a big pool, a baseball diamond, and other stuff on the other side which I have yet to explore. It was a nice walk through this park. It's quiet, not packed , just a nice neighborhood park. For all you "Pokèmon Go" players, there are quite a few Pokèstops & I caught mad pokèmon. It really is a nice park & I will be visiting more often. I saw 1 "Johnny on the Spot", I still don't know if there are more restrooms or a concession stand yet.
