McKinley Park

Especially gorgeous at night. Stopped by because Milwaukee is my hometown, took a late night walk in November; it's very cold, but well beyond worth it for the veiws and the sounds of shivering, rushing water flowing to a brisk, solitaire, crash upon the pier just begging to be admired. Solemnly with no one to admire it besides me and my newly wed wife; almost to say, "This is just for you." In moments like these, in a world so vast and preciously sculpted where you can feel the presence of God shaping the universe around us and making it ever so customary, beautiful. Handcrafting the personal and exquisitely distinguishable experience one and another just to show the handiwork of the greatest artist in existence. All art beyond this was created to imitate its likeness. Absolutely breathtaking.

So pretty and clean, I’m surprised I’ve lived in Milwaukee for almost four years and I’ve never been here before. Love it

Sometimes, the "wigglies" and energy that toddlers need to get out need to be in an open space. What better open space is there than down by the lake? It's open and full of birds. My toddler enjoys playing and bird watching, so this is a great spot.

A nice place to park right on the lakefront, but is CLOSED until May, 2024 as the damaged shoreline is being restored. More parking is available on the west side of the road. When warm weather comes, enjoy a burger or other casual food from a small kitchen with picnic tables--fresh, hot & tasty!

It’s a beautiful place. The ocean waves are spectacular and the views and mind blowing. Do take a trip to this place. It’s a family oriented place and very safe. Clean and friendly atmosphere. There is a small eating place there and you will find numerous park benches all over the park for your comfort and enjoyment of ocean views. Seagulls and ducks will entertain you and the ocean breeze will bring absolute relaxation to your soul. There is a small area for children to play on slides and swings. It’s a beach front atmosphere so pack up for a fun family vacation or a weekend get away with your friends or partner. The main thing is to enjoy life and I hope you are doing that!!!
