Reviews of Blockhouse Island (Park)

Best place to park and look at water. Watch for the seagulls!

Very beautiful location with an amazing view. Went with my friends and family over the weekend and it was just perfect. Loved the weather when we went, it was sunny and a little chilly, just the way I like it. There is enough parking and it's easily accessible.

Dan Mc

Peaceful with great view. Not a lot of parking

Lisa Dawn

Nice place not too far from town where you can just go relax watch listen to the water and let your troubles drift away

Ashley Anderson

Nice views, and lots of parking. Also, great spot for Pokemoners lol

Hassan Rawi

Floating on water … green vegetation around you … a lot of memory plaques… luxurious boats lined up … nice looking hotel in the background… what else you dream to see in one spot!!!

Michel Brault

Great place to just sit, relax & enjoy the view of the seaway, daytime & evenings. Lots of people walking, jogging & cycling. We also loved the big Adirondack chairs ????

Chris Kingston

Always a great way to spend the day, great patio and park, easy way to spend the day surrounded by water

Very good food, I do recommend to get your staff door fixed, while eating on your patio all we can hear is your door slamming every time a staff member comes and goes.it is very annoying gave me a headache

Mitchell Beattie

Always a pleasure walking around blockhouse especially when the ships are going by. Also great for a #LoserLap around the island in your vehicle.

Nice little scenic walkable path along the StLaurent River with a bunch of clean picnic table to choose from.

Randolph Puncher

Full view up and down the river. On clear days the international Bridge East of Prescott can be seen. Tour boats, which travel around the picturesque Brockville Islands leave from here. There is also a snack bar with outdoor seating.

Maryna

A great place to visit with children or for adults who need fresh air.

Michel LaBonte

Definitely upgraded lights and sound from last year. A great evening drive or parking event.

Douglas Quantz

One of Brockville's favourite places to go! Great place to meet up with friends, have a breakfast and a Timmy's to go.

Sarah Robles Torres

Picnic tables, art, landscape, birdwatching, overall nice pathway to visit, and watch the sunset, there are huge chairs where you could take nice pictures

Brad Paradis

Great place to walk around with the family. There are plaques with historical information pertaining to ship wrecks, local history and wars. A playground for the kids for the history buffs in your family. The crows nest food area to grab a snack and enjoy the view of the river. There are bathrooms, a walking path around the peninsula, docks, boats, etc.

Troy Crowder

Awesome great place to go just to enjoy the scenery..

Kathryn Foss

Beautiful site in Brockville on the St Laurence River. Views of the city, river and ships passing. This place gives access to the river for fishing or even just relaxing. The marina is found on the inside of the island’s breakwater. Mooring spots for those traveling the river and even a customs station.

Terry Mallory

Has a family we've been going here, especially in the summer, to cool off. We're also visiting Canada's First Railway Tunnel, which we have toured on multiple occasions. More people need to see the tunnel, because it's a great way to see the past in Brockville. Brockville was founded in 1785, so there's a lot of historical buildings and places in there.

Beautiful place to go for the afternoon. Lots of free parking and picnic tables to sit at. Great boardwalk along the Waters edge. Couple of playgrounds within the island for the kids to play at. Big chairs to sit in, and the ice cream stand is very reasonably priced and good.
