The parking lot was huge and it was a short walk to the entrance of the facility. I noticed there was a cafe called " Acorns" which had food and snacks and then saw bathroom facilities and showers ! It was just what i was looking for to post up and hang for a while. I will say, the showers are not the best kept, so have low expectations but there was hot water so it was exactly what i was looking for. There was a beautiful tree covered walkway down to the beach, which made it feel magical and it opened up to the lake. It wasn't the largest beach but it was perfect. The beach was really clean and lifeguards on duty. I' m so happy this place was recommended to me by a local Park Ranger when i asked for places to swim in the area. I was visiting Cold Spring for the day.

This club is a disaster. They have become so financial desperate they had to cut their private club…read morerates to nothing and have continued to face ruin. They get fined by Westchester County for violations of failure to pay their fees for pool usage. Want to see a disaster, if your a member, look inside the guard office. That is all you need to know about how this pool operates. It looks like a pigsty every day. Guards sit around on their phones while the club pays for a pool to break down: no heat numerous times a year, chemical levels so out of control they pool should be closed, but the books are not reliable or are fixed to deny the truth. They take a the most professional coach the club has seen in many years and passed to get a child to replace. If your child is a swimmer, stay away from this place. The board is a joke and is leading it to financial ruin and taking the only good aspect it had in swimming to the end of the rope.

On sunny days the shaded spots close to the pool are taken early, but it has a lot of seating space, even if they aren't right next to the pool. There's a food stall with hot dogs and that kind of stuff. You can bring your own food, but no alcohol or glass containers of any kind. Bathrooms are big and they have changing areas. The pool itself is one huge rectangle that goes from kiddie area( 2') to deep area (11'). On the deep side there are about 4-5 lanes setup for people that want to do laps. They have a separate small kids area with water slide and splash area. You can get a discount entrance if you have the westchester park pass. You can also buy a summer pool pass if you are going frequently. Lots of families at the pool, but def plenty of space to spread out in the huge pool.

Rocky beach and no waves because it's on the bay. Parking is $22 for non residents. Wish the water was clearer but it's natural. Brought water shoes but didn't really need them if you're careful. They have an East beach and West beach within park. West allows bbqs, larger fields and nice views. East beach is more like a beach due to lifeguard staff. Nature center located on east beach as well. My photos are from west beach only.

They called ahead to explain they were there only for a 20 minute photo shoot and was told it was ok for dog to stay in car .. absolutely unprofessional.. then called cops because son got out of car with dog at gate and had to walk off property but they said dog was on property even walking of the property. May be a beautiful beach but attendents were aggressive and made a chaotic scene in front of lil children. . 3 hour drive to get told no entrance with dog who again wasn't going out of car for the 20 mins they would be there .. but before attacking my children they took her $22 and then tried to say my daughter in law and kids couldn't enter. I'm very upset as a parent and we have dash cam footage to prove their actions .. while she did the shoot a ranger followed and taunted her the whole 20 mins while trying to do her professional photo shoot .. they were instigating a reaction more than what already had occured. I'm a seriously mad momma bear and will be making a phone call to the park authority

The beach is nice and clean. They have a concession building that serves many desirable beach day food options, like hot dogs, burgers, chicken fingers, ice cream, etc. It's nice to have a place to eat without having to leave the beach. Nice plus for me. There are indoor bathrooms that are very clean which is also a nice plus. They have volleyball nets, a playground, places where you can grill out and more. Great for the whole family. This beach is located in a nice suburban neighborhood so the surrounding area is nice as well. I really enjoyed myself and hope to be back one day.
