One of my favorite parks. Grew up going here and now bring my own kids. Playground has improved. The dock going out into Boom Lake has been enlarged & improved. Walking trail around Boom Lake/along Mississippi River is a great way to get some exercise in while taking in nature. Scenery is wonderful year round.
It has an assortment of equipment,picnic tables (Some sheltered),grounds were kept up, fishing piers on both sides of the park and nice trails to walk! Very relaxing! Definitely a place to check out!
Close to downtown, yet pretty peaceful. Pavilion for parties & rain cover. Play area is popular & fishing is right there on the river. Small wooded area divides it.
Its a pretty nice park and walking trail. My kids loved it when they were little!
Nice smaller park on the river. It also has places for kids to play. Bathrooms were clean.
I was surprised by this little park in the heart of Brainerd. My granddaughter and I got Happy Meals and took them to this park to have a picnic. The playground equipment was in good condition and plenty of things to play on. We even took a walk down the dock to the river. Quiet and peaceful place to destress and be a kid again.
Went there to grill some burgers . I was super impressed with how the grill is maintained. Its was super clean . The dock going to the pond was calming . We seen turtles and little bass.
There is always people there having fun. All sorts of playground stuff for kids.
The trails around this park are pretty but the playground needs to be upgraded
Best park ever! Huge dog park If you drive down the parking lot and keep going along the river. Kinda hidden but worth finding. If your kid doesnt have fun here, they arent really a kid. Walkways to the river with docks and benches. We bring food and picnic. TONS of playground equipment for every age.
The fishing top water isnt nothing special..ive even tried fatheads and leeches..butnibhear jigheads work good forbthe walleyes..im not one for jigging though
I fished the dock at the park on the Mississippi it was great
There is a great playground and small dock for fishing right inside the entrance; there is a parking lot there. If you go a little further you come upon a dog park and the beginning of a small walking trail. When you drive/walk even further in you arrive at a bigger parking lot that gives way to more walking trails through the woods. I thoroughly enjoy it here.
My daughter, my dog and I went to this park on a week day during summer. We loved the playground, and walking trails. Some of the trails are historic routes with informative plaques describing past uses.This park is also pet friendly with dog poop cleanup products. And a short walk away is the dog park that we havent visited yet.
Buster park is a dog park behind the park. Most of the time a good time by all. With the option of shy dogs to social. My dogs are very social. However today I brought obe dog home bleeding cause some one was not watching their dog.
Great walking and bike trail. Fishing pier, playground. River and pond frontage. Canoe landing. Playground and more. A very scenic park on the Mississippi River.
Wonderful park, nice for all ages but geared towards elementary aged kids. There is a small lake with a beautiful walking/biking trail around it. There is also a nice, fenced in, dog park near by.
I love this park. Beautiful trails and so peaceful.
A nice place to come relax and look at nature or to bring the kids to play. Theres also a dog park a little down the road.
A very clean and up to date playground and recreational space, the sceneries are great and has a public dog park. Great for picnics and outside birthday parties
Nostalgic on Boom Lake.
My favorite part of all time. I have held my kids birthday parties here, give fishing here, the buildings have electricity after dark to charge your phone if youre stuck... Great great great asset to our community
Lots of beautiful paved trails, a playground for the kids, a dock on the pond, a dock on the Mississippi, and a wonderful dog park. Public restrooms also available here.
Really cute park for the kids l, but the trails could be smoother.
Amazing hidden gem. I just moved to brained and stumbled upon this. Cant wait for summer!!!
Beautiful Mississippi views and a very pleasant short river trail. Hoping it gets extended with the river to rail program here in the Brainerd Lakes!
This is my kids favorite park. Watch the kids carefully. Close to the Mississippi and watch the kids by the Boom lake dock. Alot of kids like to jump around on and rock the floating dock. Also accompany your kids to the bathrooms. They are out of the way a little and I have seen many random strange guys sitting over there. Other then that, many kids are always playing at Kiwanis.
Clean and neat
Would be better without the nuisance little kids
I love the floating dock and the pavillion Provides a calm setting
A great park for kids and a biking/walking path that circles the small nearby lake.
Good fishing if we could ever get a catfish haha
My favorite park in brainerd been xoming here for years. Love taking the kids and dogs for walks.
Nice decent length path, a floating dock, next to Mississippi River, and a childrens play area with swings and a slide.
Fabulous walking trails!!!! It is beautiful. Try it out
Playgrounds fun but the water is really dirty and gross
My wife took me here when we moved here and now that she gonna b my x I had to go back. I love the park good place to research the geese great playground equipment right next to a lake and the Mississippi river
Slept under the bridge just south of park . surprisd..it was clean. Noone bothered me j I sure didnt bother any1
Great little park in Brainerd along the Mississippi River. Finally connected to other places (and the Paul Bunyan Trail) via paved bike trails. Good place to go for a jog, too (around Boom Lake.) Cute stone bridge that 8/10 people in the area have used in a graduation photo. Place gets completely flooded in the spring, though.
Nice place, fun trails to walk
Games not good took ones liked out
Love taking my kids here!
We love coming here! You can walk under the bridge by the river. There is a dock you can fish off of. There are bathroom benches and picnic tables.
Nice park very clean
Its a nice park but the later in the evening you go there the weirder the people get.
Nice place to go for a walk
Playground for children . Bathroom set up for a quick stop on the go. Set up between the river and small two acre pond . Pet friendly area with walking path
Great place to hangout.
A beautiful place for a walk.
My kids had fun playing on the frozen lake
Nice park for all ages! There is playground equipment, a walking trail, fenced in dog park, seasonal restrooms, picnic shelters, and a fishing dock on the mississippi. Go down under the bridge for some possibly R-rated graffiti.
Great park to go to with the kids
Nice place to take kids. Playgrounds bike trails and docks to go out on river and the little pond. Restrooms available. Picnic tables and benches
This is such a wonderful park. It has an awesome area for the kids to play, a few paths to walk, two pokestops and gyms, places to fish, and picnic area. Oh and there are plenty of big shade trees. I hope you enjoy your visit.
Nice and big for the dogs to get there exserize. They keep it very clean and stocked with poop bags. Friendly people who go there. For us daily regulars. We would like a wind blocker installed for in the to block the cold wind coming off the Mississippi River for the winter months. I would highly recommend and have done so to a lot of people in the brainerd lakes area.
Nice park with a nice walk around boom lake.
Very nice park..
Awesome little park. One of Brainerds (almost hidden) gems.
A place to rest. Nothing fancy. A playground and bathroom are usable. A little walk down to the Riverside.
Fun but watch out for a ton of animal feces
Dirty rusty heavily littered cigarettes every where
Very pretty area , but alot of riff raff I noticed.
Its a park its fun and beautiful
Nice space. Trees for shade. Near river.
Its a nice park!
My favorite park in the Brainerd area. Very calming walkway around Boom Lake and benches to sit and watch the Mississippi River go by.
Kids love kiwanis
Fun park for the fam. Bigger than most around the area
Great park. Kids love going there.
Great park to let the little ones run around.
Cute park with river views, nice playground and beautiful walking trails.
