    Veteran's Memorial Park is an amazing park, and I think anyone living in or visiting the St. Clair Shores area should visit. This park has something to offer everyone, no matter the age. You have a lovely view of the water, as well as a splash pad and playground for the kids. There is also spots for cookouts and volleyball, with accessible bathrooms. My family and I frequent this park multiple times a year are and never disappointed.

    Great lakefront park! Residents only during spring/summer season. Friendly staff. Amazing sunrises.

    I'm not a resident so the only time I get to enjoy this park is on Wednesday night concerts. It's a beautiful park with a awesome view of the lake. There is a play area for kids, a beach and looks like places to go fishing.( I'm not a fisherman). The band shell is very nice and there is a place to dance. The people who attend the show do mind their p's and q's so that's always good no trouble. The park is very clean. There is a nice parking lot across the street .

    Tranquility at its best.

    I was here momentarily with my husband for the very first time to watch the fireworks by the lake. We were turned away by the park rangers because we're non-residents. I would give them a zero star rating if possible. Their website said they welcome both residents and non-residents, so they're obviously not following through with what they've promised. We drove about 30-45 minutes to get here and did not let this ruin our night. We parked down the street in the parking lot of St Paul Catholic Church's and walked to the lake front. The view is amazing; it's absolutely gorgeous and breathtaking. Although the sight is breathtaking, be sure to watch out for bird/geese/duck turds lining the whole lake front around this time of the year. I can't leave a zero or one star because the lake is beautiful and the fireworks on the lake front were phenomenal! This has been the longest and most fulfilling firework show I've ever seen compared to anywhere else I've been to. This was my first time here and I wouldn't mind returning to the lake front. We are going to avoid going into the Veteran's Memorial Park because it's NOT friendly to non-residents. Oh wait, we couldn't even go inside even if we wanted to!

    Waiting for things to start.

    Always a great place to just sit outside and enjoy the music. Except people here have to pile on top of you when you are sitting. We had a family that sat surrounding us with 10 kids screaming and running around (which is fine if you aren't on top of people).

    I love this residents only park, but the waterfront does get kind of crowded. Try to go when nothings going on because the music in the pavilion ruins the peace. There is a kids water play place, playground, and you can rent free horseshoes, bocce, and shuffleboard stuff. There's a boardwalk, benches, picnic tables, etc, literally on the water.

    We enjoy going to concerts at this park. The music is great, the food trucks are good and the setting is beautiful right on the water!

    My son and I always have a blast at this park! It isn't open to the public but if you know someone…read moreor live in GPF you can get a pass. My son and I hit the pool and splash pad. He loves and baby pool! We then went for a walk in the sand on the beach. He wanted to go to the playground and play so that was next. It's nice they have a playground for the older kids and one for the younger kids that's gated in. After he was worn out enough we hit up the concession stand for a quick lunch. Love the fact they had gluten free options and a little bit of everything you can think of snack food wise. We got a cheeseburger and fries and a lemonade. We then ate lunch by the clubhouse and took a walk on the boat docks and up to the tower view area to see the lake better. During our walk we saw a mama duck with 4 babies and a turtle sunbathing! We had a wonderful time and highly recommend taking the kids there if possible!

    This is the park I grew up with through high school and beyond. It's not as big as the park park in…read moreGrosse pointe Park, but it's still a decent size. Have a small beach area and a nice harbor. The pool is also a good size and they have a kitty pool area as well. Lots of picnic tables and places together with friends and family on the weekends or in the afternoon or whenever. I still come here every summer with my brother and his family. The kids still enjoy playing in the pool and adventuring around the park. There's lots to see and do. I wish they had the kiddie area when I was a little kid. At least I get to enjoy it with my niece.
