Beautiful small park with amazing array of flowers of various colours, including a rose garden. 2 Fountains in 2 separate pools, one of them has a bridge. Both filled with water lilies, very picturesque. Lovely spot for picnicking for families. Disappointed that this summer, with high lake water levels, part of park close to lake was cordoned off almost all summer.

Park is below Dundas Street viaduct in Oakville, with beautiful rolling cliffs of red soil. Lovely natural landscaping with trees, which border Sixteen Mile Creek (can wade & also go fishing if you wish). Nice playground for kids. Limited picnic tables. Lots of space to bring your own chairs & picnic gear. Lots of lovely trails. Photographer's dream. Son took lots of pictures.

Provincial Park - we are near by and natural. Located between Oakville and Burlington, Ontario. Great place to test our your camping skills or equipment. 145 electric service sites, filling and dumping station, laundry equipment, Playgrounds, yurts, programs (summer), trails and a leash free area. Campers use 3201 Upper Middle Road W. During stay campers have access to day-use area (off Burloak) but my drive 6-11km to separate entrance. Day-use area off Burloak Drive has been a family favorite for decades. 13 km of trails, 11 reservable picnic shelters, children's play barn and farm, 1,8 acre outdoor swimming pool (additional fee), family and group education programs. In the Winter enjoy cross country skiing or snowshoeing. Annual events include: Maple Syrup Festival, Springtime on the farm, Ghostwalks, Camper Halloween and Victorian Christmas. Please refer to official website for details as this information could be stale.

Went to the childrens barn area at Bronte Creek Provincial park the on the weekend, was very surprised that your washrooms are not open and that we had to use the porta potty. Yuck !!! Why are your washrooms not open in the winter ?? It is ridiculous that you do not keep them open.

We've been going to Coronation Park for several years as it is one of our grandchildren's' favourite neighbour outings. They love both the climbing structures and the water park. We like the same things as well as the abundance of free parking, the picnic tables, the very clean washrooms and the snack shop.
Even when its busy, there is so much space to accommodate tons of kids.
A family couldn't ask for anything better in your neighbourhood.

The central branch has comfortable places to read among the magazine stands and outside as well. If you are just passing by, the public washrooms, vending machines, drinking Fountain to refill water bottles and the adjoining art gallery might still attract you. Parking at the back and bicycle stands at the front.

Bronte Heritage Park is a lovely location. There is a nice path to stroll or run alongside the marina and waterfront. The path is smooth and suitable for strollers and wheelchairs. The surrounding park is clean and well maintained. Lots of ducks and wildlife. We saw 9 swans swimming during our recent visit. Lots of benches along the way too. Really serene and perfect for a relaxing afternoon walk.
The area was bustling with people on a Saturday afternoon, but not so much that it felt too crowded.. Plenty of parking spots when we arrived around 2:30, but the parking lot seemed to be almost full by 4:00.
