Reviews of Lake Ontario Park (Tourist Attraction)

Al Ribeiro (Big Al)

The greatest location when I'm having a bad day and I still have the privilege to live in a city that is close enough to an area like that I can access I just sit there and sit for a little while I wrap up if it's warm and you're the sunshine most important of all of it to get that little bit of private time in my head the phones no computers just me and the water for a few minutes and then I get up and go back to work LOL awesome check it out safe fun and the city has put a lot of effort into keeping it that way and maintain you thanks Kingston Ontario some of us really appreciate the success we have here.

There are so many views to appreciate from lake Ontario Park. Lots of picnic tables to sit and have a bite and appreciate the view. A splash pad for the kiddos, good spot for parasailing, and can also choose to go for a long walk along the water, all the way downtown. Great place to bring a book and read. Well kept.

Alice I Alasasfeh

Good place to play and fresh air not mention the huge amount of insects

Natarajan Ravikumar

Great place to have a picnic. Picnic tables are available by the side of water with barbecue stands for use. Public washrooms also available with water fountain (was broken when we visited though). Great play area for kids with a park and splash pads. Good place for a swim if the water is not too choppy.

Imran A.

Keetharni Thusyanthan

Beautiful kept park with Lake Ontario beach. There are sand box like area for kids to play in the sand near the water. You can go swimming as it's clear but it's rocky near the shore so if you have water shoes, it's best if you wear them. I am not sure if it's sandy after the rocks. The park area is kept clean and well maintained with a sheltered picnic and washroom area. There's one playground near the front of the park and new one near it with a splash pad as well. Best of two worlds.

Matthew Irvine

Fun spot with newly paved trails. Wonderful place to walk your 2 dogs. One who must smoke weed prior to our walks and the other who no doubt has a crystal methamphetamine lab somewhere in our backyard. Good times all around! Bring the whole family!

Emod Vafa

What a beautiful place.

Dave Gabriel

L Ont. Park. I remember as a young kid grown up it was where parents told there kids...if you are good will take you to the park. From May till Labour day the trailer section would be full, you could here the music, the sound of kids having fun on the rides or the smell of the food, it was the place to have fun. Now it's a great place to take my dog for a swim or play ball.

Eric 994

Excellent park with lots of green space for the kids to run around and play.

Arshad Ahmad

Nice place with superb view of Lake Ontario. We had our lunch there and lake front. Breeze was very nice and we really enjoyed it.

K Town Card Collector

If you haven't been here and you're around Kingston then you need to go! Beautiful waterfront area, beach areas, grass areas. The whole park is amazing. Continue on that road to the other parks along Lake Ontario for an amazing afternoon out!

Ethan Campbell

I haven't spent much time in Kingston, so I was blown away by the beauty of the park. My wife and I agreed that it was the best part of our stay in Kingston. Keep in mind it was a nice 22 degrees, and sunny without hardly a cloud in the sky. Everything was very clean but bathrooms are closed right after thanksgiving weekend so go before you come! Also some dude was playing bagpipes which was sweet!

•Amazing fidgets•

Beautiful stopping off point along the Kingston Shoreline Trail. We got lunch at the one food truck, rested up and biked back to Kingston. I hope the city works on a Shoreline connection or dedicated bike lane from Kingston to the Lake Ontario Park!

Matthew Bardswich

Nice splash pad, great play structure and clean facilities. Tough to swim with little ones.

Bob Lamothe

Very nice scenic park, some very attractive renovations and more in progress. Beautiful sunrise and sets over lake Ontario. Pedestrian, cycle and pet friendly.

This the one of the best parks I have ever visited in Ontario. There are lots of parking available and very nice place to walk and enjoy the lake view. I had visited the park during my Kingston visit and hopefully will visit again this year.

Daryl Tremain

Work is going on to upgrade the paths, so the park is less accessible to some users at this time. However, the paths will be in excellent shape when they are done. It looks like the two steepest hills will have alternate routes.

Jessie Wakeling

I love this park! It's peaceful and the walk ways are very well maintained! My husband and I will be returning! :)

mukisa devis

Lake ontario park is unique park with inclusive space for all regardless of age, race and color in kingston with wide view of lake and water breeze I recommend it to everyone who love cool and relaxing quiet environment

David Currie

Lake Ontario Park is a great place to go and stretch your legs while out for a walk or run. There are some great paths to walk on and lots of benches to sit on. There are stairs that go down to the lake where you can see the waves crashing along the shoreline. You can lay down on the grass and listen to the birds twittering in the treetops and feel the breeze on your face :-).

Maxwell Hounsell

Always enjoy walking here and several places to swim. Since the new layout of the park, the splash pad has been a new addition and update of the viewing seat area for entertainment. The Old Camping area can still be walked, makes me wonder about all the Memories that must have been made over the years. Great for a time to relax with the family or catch an Event when available.

Chintan Mavani

Loved it....nice place to refresh mind.. but beware of wild animals like snakes..

Debbie

Lake Ontario park is located at the south end of the lake in Kingston.. absolutely love this place. Lots of walking . Kids play ground. water park for the little ones ..peaceful with lots of serenity..

Beautiful park to spend the entire day with the family at. Splash pad, playground, sand pits, water side, picnic tables and tons of greenery.

Corey Simm

Amazing views, clean park

Sid Sharma

This place should be a must visit on your trip to Kingston. Though it is a lake, on a windy day it will ensure you feel closer to an ocean! The access to the lake is safe and perfect for seasoned swimmers. Simple yet beautiful! ????

John Bailey

One of the best places to run to combine the challenge of hills, uneven terrain, stairs and the peacefulness of being near the water.

Absolutely stunning park in downtown Kingston right on Lake Ontario. It's huge! I would have given it 5 stars, but there is no beach to speak of. Just rocky areas where you can cautiously wade in...my 13-year-old nephew cut his toe on a rock...they are covered in moss and VERY slick. Beautiful though.

Sagar Ruparelia

Beautiful and serene place to go take a stroll in the evening

robbie seward

Beautiful setting. Huge walkways. Mature trees, wind coming off of the lake's edge. Picnic settings available for all including BBQ pits. The walk will take you by some very historical and impressive limestone buildings by the cement pier. Quite a long walk, if followed from end to end. Ample parking as well.
