This park has spots for day camping. When you arrive you can park in the main area, or drive through the park and pick a table and spot for day camping. There’s a trail that overlooks the lake which takes you to the BLT Connector. This is really nice spot. There is a long boardwalk that I saw a few people fishing. There’s a sign that says no swimming. A lot of people on the boardwalk. There’s a lot of pot holes on the mail road in and out of the park.

Nice place just 20 minutes away from Halifax. Great Lake for fishing, walking, biking, daily picnic, and having fun. Very large shelter for groups.

Beautiful park

Daniel Blinn

Nice relatively quiet park. Docks are great for fishing. Trails great for biking. And lots of really nice picnic areas.

I love how organized this park is..You can access two lakes and you can actually drive the loop and stop anywhere you are allowed..There are washrooms..and you can access the St. Margaret's bay trail if you like

This is a quiet place to walk your dog or do a little stroll. Not very interesting in winter but close enough to the city to get away. In the winter the gate is closed so park walk about 10-15 mins up the gravel road. This road can be challenging in Jan- March (very icy). It seems like it was once a campground because there are some old campsite nooks, coal pits and outhouses. Sites are not numbered and have picnic tables. Some have trash and beer cans from winter visitors. Summer it opens and you can drive right in for a picnic. Saw some people fishing off the dock. Follow the loop around the campsites and you will see some nice rocky beaches (no proper beach, but that would be nice if the province fixed it up a bit) and a stream. Good for secluded walks off season, picnics in summer. No garbage cans off season or bathrooms (except one outhouse that was broken open). So... please pick up garbage/ and clean up after your dog so it’s nice for everybody.

We aren't sure if it is different in the warmer months, but stopped in here today for a walk with our dog. Only had two parking spots out front of the gate, as the gates are closed and locked, possibly for the season? There isn't very much signage to let you know how far in the trails are, so we walked along the gravel road for about 10 minutes until we finally found what I believe was the first one. We also couldn't find a garbage can anywhere, which is not particularly nice when you have to take your dog waste home with you. Some people had just left theirs (in bags, but still) at the front gate which is very inconsiderate. That being said, the scenery is beautiful! We came across the water and could see a large wooden boardwalk on the other side so we just hadn't walked far enough. Look forward to going back again to do some more exploring.

It's a beautiful park with very accessible trails, lake access for swimming and fishing, and there is a connector path leading to Raise to Trails.

We liked it. Went fishing with my kids in Nov!! The park is lovely. Great place to walk, lots of peoples walking dogs. Biggest complaint is the parking by the gate is substandard, with cars backing onto main road it's a wonder their have not been bad accidents.

Tanya Snair

One of my happy places as a kid. Had to come back for a walk to enjoy some beautiful weather and the sounds of the birds.
