The existing trees that aren't dead, are way overgrown and very little of park is accessible because of this. The beach sedimentation has built us so much along the entire shoreline and they don't want anyone swimming here at a Waterfront park. What kind of waterfront park says NO to everything. The benches on the property are all facing weeds so can't see beyond to see all of the water. Please call the City of Lake Forest Park to ask them to get this park cleaned up including dredging the shoreline!!! So sad to see what a mess this place has become. City Hall: 360-368-5440

The park is small, but serene. Most of the space follows Lyon Creek under overhanging foliage, with a bench and boardwalk to enjoy. Where the creek meets the lake, there is a small dock and bench to frequent. Have not seen any salmon running up the creek as of yet, but that would make my day.

Due to many cars during the meets, there was a bit of a walk to get to the pool for competitions, but not really hills to make the walk difficult. The pool deck around the pool was small, so we came with the be extra considerate mentality when swimming here because everyone was cramped. My first-ever post-season swim meet was here in 1999. It was B-Champs, a meet for those who failed to make the time cuts for prelims. I loved the pool and how fun the meet was. There was more joy on the pool deck than I later observed at the meets reserved for the fast swimmers. If there was one hook for me competing the full 12 summer seasons I did, it was that first B-Champs in 1999 for me and that I would get to swim at the Sheridan Beach pool again if I continued competing. I loved the four-lane pool. It was a unique competition environment and a tight fit in the competition space that I liked. Outside the pool deck was concessions, a large grassy area, and a playground. Our coaches encouraged us not to waste our energy playing on the playground. We found that allowed for some healthy rebellion, playing for five to ten minutes during the meets to make sure we did not lose sight of the fact we were kids. The space did not lose its magic when I became a teenager.

It also wasn't that pretty on summer with machinery around. But kids lived watching it!! There is always someone by the pool making sure it is clean, and I am thankful for them.
