Reviews Summary
Beaty Landing is a well-loved local park offering a pleasant mix of nature trails, river access, and picnic facilities. Visitors appreciate the well-maintained gravel loop and the opportunity for fishing and kayaking. Some minor trail maintenance, particularly on the grass sections and the hill from the parking lot, would enhance the experience.

"This was a great small but packed with stuff place in painesville. There was a launch ramp for maybe a kayak or paddleboard. I saw a large fish by the rocks. There was a path for fishing and some really good habitat for fish to dwell. There was wildlife on the way. (snake pic). There was a paved path that i have yet to explore, a shelter, picnic tables, and restroom."

"Nice local park with a nice picnic pavilion and nature trails. The gravel loop is exactly 1200 meters and then the grass loop added on is slightly over a mile long when added on to the gravel loop as one big loop. The grass trails are not as smooth as the gravel ones though, so watch your footing when running. The steep hill down to the gravel trail from the parking lot is crumbling pavement that's very bumpy and bad footing, so that could be resurfaced. Our cross country team enjoys running here on a regular basis. It would be nice if the side walk on the side of the road that the park is on was extended down the hill to the park to make it more safely accessible by foot from that busy road and nearby neighborhoods."
