"January 2023
Very different feeling to visit in Winter as the lake is frozen and it is very brown. Still it is good walk around the lake if there is no snow.
Summer 2022
Visited this place with my kids as we were looking something close by. There is beautiful trail around the lake. You can walk or cycle on the trek.
There is plenty of activities for kids in the park including splash pad, swings and play area. For adult, there is open Gym scattered all over the garden.
Lake is beautiful but there is small place to sit with kids. However there is no safety rails so be careful if you visit with kids.
The place will be little busy on weekend but still there is plenty of space.
Other unusual thing I notice was that squirrel can come very close to you and may ask for food. They are not dangerous.
The place is very accessible for old people and people with special needs. However the trek has some slope so it can be tiring for kids and old people.
Tips: You can park your vehicle in Meadowvale Community Centre parking. GPS navigation will take you to paid visitor parking site."
