Last year, they planted new trees and did some work to update the path. It was well worth it! There's even a new playground for kids. Watch out for the disc golfers. They usually pause & wait for you to walk by. There's also a dog park for SCS residents. Dogs are not allowed outside their gated area. If you go at the right time, you can see a beautiful view of the sun setting. It's a great spot to enjoy with your family or friends. All in all, it's a great park.

I especially loved that the park has partnered with the Troy Public Library to make the loop a Storybook Trail, which changes books monthly! Visitors can enjoy a 9-hole disc golf course, ball diamond, play structures, swings, sand volleyball, and a picnic shelter. The swings include traditional swings, baby bucket swings, as well as one ADA swing. There is plenty of parking and the restrooms seem to be open seasonly.

Me and my girlfriend were impressed here. I love the ocean and the city view. You must visit in the summertime. You will get a better taste and vibe of the park. We felt safe coming here to take a look, because at first, we were a little doubtful, but we ended up having a good day.

Belle Isle has changed dramatically over the last several years. Since the state took over…read moremanagement, the park feels cleaner, safer, and far more maintained than it once did. The investment really shows -- from the roads and landscaping to the public spaces along the water. It's one of the best places in Detroit to relax, walk, or ride, and the bike paths are perfect whether you're on a regular bike, e-bike, scooter, or just cruising around the island. The views of the Detroit River and skyline make it feel like a completely different environment from the city only minutes away.

This is an okay park to take my nephew for some sandbox time or to play on the playground some,…read moremostly alone, as there are few kids ever to play there at any given time. It's a decent sized park for RO. There's a sidewalk around the perimeter as it borders Main Street and Crooks Street. The slightly newer playground is okay but never well maintained and there's an older wooden playground that is made of wood and looks like it's seen better days. Most kids are not allowed on it since they are liable to get splinters on it. The sandbox is a decent size but is almost always filthy and dirty there, this is a highly neglected to be sure. This park is also known as frisbee park and is most frequented for that particular reason and not much else. There is a decent size hill for the kids to run around on but I think it's mostly for the frisbeers. I don't generally go walking around this park much since I don't ever want to get hit with a errant frisbee.

They allow dogs which is a plus. It's a nice disc golf area for being in town. The only down side would be sharing baskets with other tee pads which can have you waiting around some. And as you can see in the picture there is so many leaves it's easy to lose a disc. But overall if you're looking for somewhere close to go it's worth stopping by.

One of the posts said that this is because of the amount of geese that have been frequenting the lake this year or because of runoff from rain. We went once before we knew about the e coli issues and actually had a great time. The beach (we thought) appeared clean and the water was the perfect cool temperature on a hot summer day. The swimming area went deep enough that we could float away from the littles on the shoreline. There were two life guards on duty. They have really amazing facilities where a get together was being held under the pavilion. They have a snack station, but we brought our own chips and sodas. They also have a splash pad with water slides. This area was closed when we went, and you have to pay a little more to access this area. They also have some cool trails and a frisbee golf course. You can bring dogs, but not to the designated swimming area. I hope they figure out the e coli issues because we would love to go back.
