This park has a Beautiful 27 hole golf course known as Quail Chase Bordering lake Mc Neely. A well…read moremaintained facility with bent grass fairways along with well manicured greens and white sand bunkers. You must play this course. Price wise this is worth every penny. Call ahead for tee times Highly recommend Green fees include golf cart. Tee times are a must.

I haven't been to McNeely in a while, probably since I was a kid but we have recently started going…read moreagain and it's definitely been enhanced! There are plenty of spots for fishing but some of them you will need to take a short hike down a gravel road. If you bring a wagon make sure it has bigger wheels but probably best to carry everything to make it easier. There is a fishing dock as well that's pretty big and most definitely is shareable with a few groups. The hiking trail that extends around to the dam is a fun walk since it goes in and out of wooded covering. Makes it great for sunny days as well. The playground is nice and maybe small to moderate size. There are BBQ stands to use and picnic tables. There are bathrooms but not very quick to get to from most parts of the park so keep that in mind. Great place to kayak as well! Great views and since the lake is narrow it makes it feel more like a river to go through. Super fun place! Glad to see them doing more work on it Only criticism is that there is lots of trash and even though it's the patrons fault, the park could do a better job at cleaning it up. Watch your little ones so they don't pick up pokey fish hooks or broken bottles.

Brookville Lake is our home lake. We live 35 minutes away and we own a boat so we spend a lot of…read moretime here. The lake itself is a little more than 5,000 Acres which is then surrounded by about 11,000 Acres of woods and picnic areas. Our main focus is fishing it is what we love to do. We were able to get out fishing about a week ago as the weather had turned nice. In the summer months the lake does get pretty busy with boaters and skiers. The first time this year we got out and caught 19 crappie and one catfish. That lake is full of catfish. We catch enough fish in the lake over the course of the fishing season to feed our family and extended family for the year. You can also find campgrounds here and you can reserve them through the Indiana DNR website. There are also hiking trails through the woods. Plenty to do if you want to get away for a week or a weekend.

went yesterday to try out new nikon camera and having trouble getting it to work went looking for…read morebirds ... heard there were some at brookeville lake but actually found more at white water state park. but no were close or easy to photography. at brookeville lake i saw some big birds up in a next on electric poles .. not sure if there were eagles or osprey. didn't get great pic or look but there were 2 nests. didn't see the cranes or white pelicans here. it was grey cold windy day. so light wasnt ideal.

Great, unique park with amazing scenery and wildlife habitat! It's a perfect mix of grasslands,…read morewoodlands, and wetlands! Chapel Lake is absolutely in my top 5 parks in the area, and I try to make a visit at least once a week. I hope the city of Jeffersonville will take some of the features of this park, and adds them to future parks too!

Chapel Lake Park increasingly has two problems that diminish its appeal and safety. First, visitors…read morefishing from the grassy bank around the lake or sitting at benches near the canoe launch pad often leave trash on the ground. On any given day, you can see plastic bottles, plastic cups and straws, snack wrappers, food and bait cartons, plastic and paper bags, and the like carelessly thrown down on the ground instead of placed in trash cans that are available. Some of this trash winds up in the lake, which cannot be good for the fish, turtles, and frogs. Sometimes people leave their food trash (food cartons, cups, plastic bottles, half-eaten fast food) on the picnic tables by the little playground instead of simply discarding the junk in the trash can that is right by the playground. The other growing issue is rude kids on motorized scooters and motorized bikes traveling too fast around the park's paved trail. On June 2, 2026, two boys, both maybe 12 or 13 years old, were zooming on the path easily twice as fast as a normal bike can go, one of them angry at the other and screaming "mother f____er" at the other. This profanity could easily be heard at the little playground where small children and parents were. As this angry kid passed an older man walking on the trail, he shouted something like "You don't know what this is about, so don't look at me, a__hole!" The older man had not said a single word to this boy. These two boys left the park about 20 minutes later and went to the Crystal Springs subdivision off New Chapel Road. They both live in that neighborhood, so they can readily return to Chapel Lake Park, unsupervised and profane, to ruin the park experience for others.
