A peaceful spot on Lake Erie in Avon Lake. We frequently stop at the nearby McDonalds for breakfast sandwiches of a Sunday morning and take them to Veterans Park to enjoy the lake view and the activities around us. Swimmers practice their skills under the eyes of watchful parents, the Sunday yoga group is well attended. After eating, we stroll around the park before heading home. A delightful start to a sometimes hectic day!

Avon Lakes Veterans Memorial Park is a pleasant little - emphasis on little - public access spot to an equally small patch of Lake Erie beach.Perched on a low cliff, which offers a panoramic view of the lake, the parks one drawback is its postage-stamp size - the public area is scarce 100 yards along the cliff, with parking for only perhaps two-dozen vehicles.It does feature a large, old house that serves as city park headquarters and provides limited group meeting space in non-COVID times.It is an attractive, if tiny place, but geared mostly to residents who live close enough to walk or bike to its confines.A much better spot for out-of-area visitors is the spacious Huntington Beach, five miles to the east along the same Lake Road in Bay VillageVeterans is lovely and well-appointed, just too small to allow distancing.

Clean, well maintained. There is NOT a beach. A grassy lawn which has stairs going into the water.Breaker walls are close enough together to inhibit lengthier swims (a la Huntington Beach).

Peaceful place to sit on the benches and just enjoy the beautiful sun setting over Lake Erie. It was so pleasant there this evening that there was a Tae Kwon Do class and a yoga class going on, people eating out at the picnic tables, biking and walking.

The place is nice and relaxing but some of the stuff has cobwebs on it and some scratches. If it was a little more clean I would give it a 5/5

Great 105 Howitzer display with commemorative plaques to those men lost from WW1 onward. Great views of Lake Erie and benches to sit and relax. A little quiet getaway from the busy world to contemplate the sacrifice others have made for our country and freedom.

A very small but beautiful park. There is plenty of seating and the views are gorgeous.

Review №52

I walk my dog here almost every evening. I opposed the construction of a gazebo in the middle of the park because it would ruin the view of the lake. The new gazebo is tucked out of the way. It is smaller than originally planned, so doesnt obstruct the view of the lake very much.

Quaint park with a boardwalk and great sunsets over Lake Erie. Rocking chairs and ice cream for evening sunset chats with friends. Clean rest rooms and a nice party center.

Beautiful day. Beautiful lake. It was gorgeous out there. Cooler with the breeze off the lake. Some of the boards were warped. Could be a tripping hazard. All in all it was a pleasant experience.

Beautiful park! I went for the Rock the Lake festival where I saw some interesting large pieces of furniture and other items to decorate a home. It was a gorgeous and worth the trip even though I purchased nothing.

Popular now in the summer for sunsets but not so much through past years. Only minutes from my house, been visiting for 30 years. Frozen lake in the winter is awesome too.

Its an ok park for the less active people. Dont waste your time if you are looking for a place to get a good walk in. The path isnt very long, the beach is scant, and the sidewalk runs out.The sunset is pretty, but there isnt a great vantage point to get a proper view.
