I'm spoiled. I know I am. There's no doubt. I'm used to quiet beaches with lots of space.
For people living in the area this beach is no doubt a gem. For me though, it has too many people, you can hardly move with all the arms and legs strewn about.
Parking required crossing a busy street of two way traffic including work trucks and semis.
If I had small children I would avoid this beach unless there was 1:1 supervision with another adult to manage the cooler.
As a person without kiddos I'd avoid the beach as it's too full of people and that's just not so much my thing.
If I had to drive to a beach, this one isn't it.

The place is nice with pretty artwork throughout the interior and some sculptures on the exterior. They have good plays and concerts; stage is good and quality sound. The seats are comfortable with plenty of legroom, I don’t thing there are any bad seats. They have the main seating area and a balcony with a great view of the stage. There is a huge parking lot so ample parking outside.
Just saw a great show last weekend. It was well organized...easy parking, comfortable seats, sat back and enjoyed the show!

My husband and I hiked for about two hours here in Fall on a weekday. It was a beautiful day, and we enjoyed the more difficult trails. The trails were not busy at all, which was really nice.
There are signs everywhere that people need to have their dogs on leashes, but we encountered a number of people hiking with their dogs not on a leash.
I would definitely recommend coming here!

My wife and I walk this trail a couple times each week. It is located within walking distance from our house and is great for the exercise. You can go for miles!

Nice, clean beach with concessions. There's also an area for children to play as well as boats to rent. What I like best is the area around the beach where you can walk or bike. Beautiful walking area in the fall too!

As a resident of Hartland I often visit this park during my (infrequent) walks during the good weather months. It's an EXCELLENT park for all folks from senior citizens to kiddies. Nice "splash" area for the little ones to get wet and enjoy in the summer. Swings and gymboree type climbing and exploring areas for the kids too. Bark River runs by it and there's a nice little pond where a kid can drown worms trying to catch a fish or two.

We took a short trip to Milwaukee, our 10 year old son loves indoor rock climbing and he wanted to do that over Spring Break. We found Adventure Rock and went two times over 3 days. The staff is knowledgeable, trustworthy and kind. The rock climbing can be done in several rooms and various degrees of difficulties. They had many auto-belays and a couple of caves for bouldering. We arrived late morning, early afternoon on weekdays and it was not crowded. Hubby and sons all climbed and loved it. Very nice gym, wish there were more of these gyms.
During our mini vacation we climbed at Adventure Rock, skated on the olympic oval at the Pettit, rode the indoor mountain bike trails at Ray's. Of those activities our 10 year old loved Adventure Rock the best!

During massage from Debby, she takes notice of the condition of your skin, muscles, etc. and provides recommendations to help your particular condition. Her recommendations have helped me. I will be a life long client.

I come here often to run the trails, xc ski groomed trails in the winter (when it snows), mountain bike the designated bike trails, or just take a walk. There is a dog park, a swimming pond, sand volleyball, and at least 5 reservable pavilions. Like all the Waukesha parks there is a fee to enter, or just buy the annual pass.
