Visitors can enjoy amenities such as a baseball park, pickleball courts, paddle boats, workout machines, beach volleyball, and bocce. The bike path runs alongside the scenic Fox River, providing breathtaking views. Benches are plentiful, inviting visitors to relax and soak in the surroundings. It's the perfect spot to set up a pop-up tent and/ r picnic blanket and fully immerse oneself in nature. Additionally, the park is conveniently located near a variety of restaurants on Main Street in St. Charles.

Since the last time I came here they have added so much stuff! I look forward to having a picnic in the park next time I am out in this neck of the woods. St. Charles is and always will be one of my favorite towns out in the suburbs.

There were sculptures all along the walking path. This gave us something to look at and discuss as we walked. In addition to the walking path, there is a playground, tennis court, and skate park at this park. There is also a veteran's memorial at the center of the park. For a variety of things to do, I highly recommend Mount Saint Mary Park.

There's a paved walk leading from the parking lot to the water and another side where you walk on grass to reach the fenced in area. It was a little confusing our first visit here as we didn't notice any clear signage directing us where to get to the water or other areas from the grassy path. Our pups enjoyed their visit very much and although the small body of water didn't look the cleanest, we still let them cool off and enjoy a swim. The picnic tables in a shaded area were appreciated on a hot day. Bring lot's of drinking water for you and your pet! Also, as with most dog parks, remember that any toys you bring for fetching are likely going to be "fair game" to the many other dogs you might see here.

This is a large, well maintained area for your four legged friend to roam around, play ball, or just socialize with other dogs. My dog likes to jump on top of the picnic tables reserved for humans and slobber all over, but it is a dog park, so people just have to deal. One thing I will comment on, is that if your dog humps, you should probably watch them. It's just obnoxious and some other dogs will snap if they are continuously being mounted. What is that anyway? I understand they're animals but really, don't you think you should discourage yours from doing that to stranger's pets? Yeahhh.. Trails-- on the far west end of WS park, there are some trails that are pretty secluded. There are great hills for running and it's very pretty. I think this may be a good spot for XC skiing as well, but I've yet to delve into that activity so we'll see this winter. I really like it, it's peaceful (albeit a bit creepy). There are also community garden plots that you can rent for a summer near the dog park. I'll probably update my review after this summer since I'm getting one this year!! I'm not sure if this is really considered a different park than the James O. Breen portion but if not, there are tons of soccer fields and Otter Cove splash park (which I've never been to). P.S. There is a boy's home (correctional center) located just south of the park, but it's very well secured and I've never seen anyone from inside in the years that I've been coming here.

You can never be too careful. Although this park is located in what many people would consider to be the "middle of nowhere", it's really not to those that live on the west side of STC. The park is a wide open space, and is visible from both Crane and Bolcum. In addition to the peaceful atmosphere of the park, there is a good amount of parking, playgrounds, and some ball fields. It's a great place to do an outdoor workout or meditate, as when I frequent the park I'm usually the only person there so I don't have to worry about looking like a jackass doing exercises. I mean, the people from the street don't get that good of a view so I'm not worried about being busted out. As always, please clean up after yourself! There's occasional garbage or dog waste which is naaasty!!
