This park is highly recommended. The environment is inviting and quite peaceful plus social distancing is easy to accomplish. Its great for the children, adults & pets and there are enough people to where you dont feel uncomfortable or as if youre all alone in the woods. I will definitely do this trail again... soon!

The best park in Chesapeake! A calm and relaxing park in Chesapeake. It is kids and dog friendly. There is a lake in the middle and about a 1.5 mile walk around the lake. There is a large playground for kids. This is a great spot of running and biking. This is also a beautiful place to take pictures.

Very beautiful park and lake setting. This was my first visit to this park on a beautiful Saturday. I used it for a background family photo session. I wasnt the only one with this idea!

Nestled close to town, this well-kept park has a 1.5 mile trail loop of earth/woodchips with a forest canopy over much if it. The childrens jungle gym play area up front is great for playdates it seems too. Ive only encountered polite walkers and runners and although parking is limited, it isnt overcrowded on the trail. Fishermen seem to like the lake too but I cant offer an opinion regarding their catch. Go, enjoy the outdoors, get some exercise. And if there is an older guy huffing a bit but still with good form, smile at him.

Great recreation area. Good job Chesapeake. It is a one and a half mile circuit around a beautiful lake. Places to picnic and or just sit and enjoy. Parking could be expanded but less parking translate to.less people so OK

Love this park for the beautiful scenery and the long trail around the lake- sp tranquil. I always leave feeling renewed and refreshed!

Great place for jogging, walking with dogs, bicycle beautiful scenery. Picnic table available, portable toilet and you can fishing as well. Just so bad we can’t do kayaking here. The parking spot right in gate or if it full you park around the road or in front the building there a lot of parking spot

This park is awesome. It has a great playground for the kids with benches, beautiful lake, and a 1.5 mile walking trail around the lake shaded by trees. This is a great place for adults and kids alike. Good for runners and walkers. Lots of dog walkers as well. Also fishing in the lake, with fishing license of course. Highly recommend this place. Also, parking can sometimes be a little rough and spill out onto the street, but its manageable.

Love this park. Over the years its become very popular, which makes it hard to visit sometimes. But we still love to go when its not too busy.

This is by far the best park in Chesapeake to take your dog for a walk. One lap around is the perfect distance of just under 1.5 miles. The pathway is very wide and contains small gravel. The views around the entire park are beautiful. You can also go catch and release fishing (do not bring home water is not clean).Also has a very nice playground for the children. Lots of benches to take a rest as you are going around the lake. There is one pavilion with about 6 tables which could be used for a get together. And also 3 portable toilets, which are usually pretty clean. Please note that the back side of the park backs up against the by-pass so you will hear cars, but it’s not loud at all.Parking is easy as you can park on the street or in the parking lot across the street from the park entrance.Please be sure to pick up your trash and dog poop as there are a bunch of trash cans and they usually provide doggie bags at the entrance. You are not allowed to swim or wade.I highly recommend trying this park out with your dog! Check out the pictures!

Great park! Simple 1.5 miles loop around the lake thats mostly shaded. Great for running, walking the dogs or cycling. The trail can and will turn into part of the lake after a heavy rain. Erosion from this has exposed some roots which can present a light trip hazard. Overall, Id highly recommend you check it out!

Beautiful scenery and path. I had no idea that this place existed before discovering it on Google maps. Brought my German Shepherd with me to accompany me on the trail.

Beautiful spot for a walk,run or jog, dog friendly. Just stunning

Amazing views but too crowded on the weekends, olease wear a mask.

Great place to go with the dog. Nice walk around the lake with trees and great lake views. There is a playground for the kids.

This is an amazing park, I love coming here to fish and once in a while go on either a run, bike ride, or just a walk around the beautiful lake. Whats also great is that if you came with kids there is a playground with jungle gyms and a lot of other activities that they can do. I love coming here and highly recommend it.

Great park with a 1.5 mile loop around the lake. Parking lot is small and most people park outside the entrance. Theres another Parking area down the road but its even smaller. Has a nice playground for the kids and overall a wonderful park for walking, running, biking, and fishing.

So serene.. I was nice to get out and experience nature in this time of uncertainty.. I enjoyed every bit of it.

Went there for the very first time love the area lots of room to walk ride your bike or run and just to sit back and relax and look at the lake and enjoy it

This is a great place to bring your whole family. The newly paved path from the parking lot to the playground and picnic shelters is a great addition to allow more people access to this beautiful little treasure. If youre a runner/walker, follow the path around the lake for 1.5 miles of prettiness you didnt know was tucked away in the Greenbrier area. I do my interval runs there without getting bored. It would be better if there was a bathroom, but for now theres a portable john available.

Nice park. Lots of trees, walking trail, dog friendly, pretty lake, and a nice playground for kids.

Ive often heard of this park, but never gone before. I definitely was enamored by the lake and how beautiful it was there. Id like to visit again and spend more time in that area.

Really great park honestly, the path is wide so great for running or biking to avoid running into people.The views across the water are honestly great as well photos as an example.The little workout stations are nice as well however the one by the electric wires seems a little abandoned hahaHighly recommend for a run/walk people even setup hammocks.

Nice nice nice park, been going here for years. Its an easy flat trail that loops around the lake. Good for a run, fitness walking, or just a relaxing stroll. Its fun for family, kids, and friends... and you can bring your dog here too!!! There are resting stops, workout posts, and fishing piers all along the trail. Picnic tables, playground, and porta potties near the entrance for convenience. Plenty of shade and open spaces for sightseeing. The entire park is well maintained and beautiful. Its a nice and serene experience here no matter which activity you choose.

Love love love this place! My new favorite place to be to unwind, walk, etc. My dog loves it too.

Beautiful park, awesome walking trail with lake, and docks all around. They recently replaced playground with brand new equipment. One of my favorites.

Very nice park with a huge playground for the kids and a 1.5 miles walk trail around the beautiful lake

Really enjoyed the Park, Atmosphere ect. BUT......THE PEOPLE WERE COMPLETELY Unfriendly and RUDE!! Will return but will have a different attitude towards the Public!

Its beautiful and there is a lake with a walking trail. There is a playground and picnic shelter which additional places to sit and enjoy all the wonderful nature

Awesome place!!!! Spectacular scenery great playground for kids and generally not too many people.

Well maintained, great walking paths, nice docks for fishing, plenty of benches for resting and to enjoy the fabulous view of the lake

Very dog friendly, kid friendly. A very beautiful place to run!

Great place to walk and relax. Lots of people walking there dogs.

Quiet, beautiful place to walk, biking, fish, and picnic. I love it! Will always be my go to quiet place.

Cool park. A great portion of this park is shaded making it a nice walk around the lake. No swimming allowed. The route around the lake is 1.5 miles. This could be an ideal place for the navy PRT. There are lots of stops along the route for picnics and what not.

Great place to visit. Plenty of room to exercise. Park in office park across the street from the park lot. Park lot is tight and crowded.

First time walking here. Will be coming back ! Beautiful scenery and I always enjoy a family environment.

Very nice trail to do some light jogging or biking. Everyone is friendly and courteous. Not much parking but you can park in the business parking lots and walk a little further.

Park for all ages!! Theres a playground, fishing spots, work out stations, huge hiking areas, and plenty of space for other activities!!! Pet friendly and family friendly!

Not many amenities, but this place is beautiful. A well maintained track that encircles the gorgeous lake. The simple enjoyable pleasure of nature.Bring some bread for the turtles and fish.

First time experience, and I was floored at how well maintained the area was! We had a blast fishing, observing wildlife, & playing in the trees over the water! Bring your family & fur babies (leashes are a must there) on a wonderful 2 mile nature walk around the lake!

Perfect trail for the family or exercise enthusiast! Gorgeous lakefront paved trail for jogging or walking. Fun areas for kids to be amused. Dog friendly! The Lake is clear and pristine - but not for swimming or wading. There is signage in a few places stating this.

Brought my dog here today to walk around the lake a couple times. They have a 1.5 mile loop of fine pebbles to walk/run on, a jungle gym, exercise equipment, covered and uncovered picnic tables, scenic overlooks, water access (with no swimming signs), and two small docks. There were lots of people walking their doggos, people running, people biking, people with strollers, and people walking. The trail is wide and the park seems well maintained. There is even a medium field on the opposite side of the water. Check it out!

Great place to walk...run...bike...relax...walk the doggies... the lake takes u away with its diverse vistas

We love this park. Theres tons of space to explore, play, workout, and relax. The biggest thing that makes it hard to enjoy 100% is that the mosquitos can be super super bad during parts of the year. It would also be awesome and super appreciated if the city put in actual bathrooms.Theres a fun park and whenever we visit with kids they end up also enjoy finding sticks and running the pathway.Also- we called and asked- We were told that lettuce is a great snack to feed the turtles in the lake. Dont toss bread in for them.

OMG.... this park is beautiful and very peaceful. Me, my sister, my daughter and my God daughter go here to work out, as most people do and clear our minds.

Always a great time to get fresh air walking around the lake!

Nice park. One of the most beautiful parks that are located here in Chesapeake. A nice circuit to run, bike, or walk. Plenty of spots to fish. Nice playground.

The scenery is really beautiful and peaceful, and the people are very friendly. I love that you are able to think and unwind while walking, jogging, cycling, fishing or simply sitting by the lake or picnic area.

Beautiful playground for kids to play in, beautiful lake and trail. Caveat- This place is usually very busy

Its a serene place, especially early in the morning. Its family and pet friendly.

Wonderful little park in the heart of Chesapeake. They have a fantastic walking trail that goes around the lake as well as a large playground, picnic pavilions, and exercise equipment. Its also a great place to take younger bike riders as the lake path is nice and wide and fairly smooth for being a gravel path. I love taking my kids here to play and ride or just have a picnic.

So beautiful and peaceful and the 1.5 mile trail is perfect for running or walking around the lake.

Nice park you should go check it out you can walk, run ride bikes and fish how awesome is that

Nice easy trail for running, biking, and walking. Friendly for kids, pets, and easy to push a stroller around. Very serene, 1½ mile loop with mile markers!

Such a wonderful place to go for a walk or a run or take a stroll with your family. Very stroller friendly and they have an awesome play area for kids. Super clean

Great trail around the lake. Nice spots to stop and enjoy the view or go fishing.

Ive been going here for over ten years. Great place to exercise comfortably and safely, or even just for leisure. Fishing is not bad either, lots of spots to cast. My favorite park in that area of Chesapeake for sure!

Relaxing place! Great for family walk and picnic!

Very nice walking path, renovated playground (last fall) and a beautiful lake.

A great park to enjoy a relaxing day walking fishing and just chilling.

Beautiful park... we are going to come bqck

We are new to the area so I thought I would bring my toddler and give it a try. We love it! It’s stroller friendly and a large enough walking space that you don’t feel crowded. My toddler can also get out of the stroller and safety do his own thing. The playground is currently closed (due to covid) however, it looks amazing and we can’t wait to try it!

Clean park, the views were nice. Took family photos there

This is a great park to visit. There is a beautiful walking trail that goes around the lake, a nice playground and some good fishing as well. I pulled a 6 pound large mouth bass out of this lake before. Unfortunately, boats are not allowed in the lake. If you are looking for a nice place to go on a walk and enjoy the great outdoors, look no further than the heart of Greenbrier in Chesapeake.

Great place to walk around the lake, take your dogs to, fish, picnic and there is a nice playground.

Really nice park. You just cant go swimming

Perfect place to walk the dog, exercise, work on your 5K, and just enjoy the outdoors. Huge lake for fishing and kayaking. Although you cant swim, there is a playground for bringing the children out to! As you walk around the loop, there are a lot of places to stop and do exercises. And for the Pokemon go players, theres a lot of stops and water types!

Fun place for the kids and to walk your dog. Get some good exercise at the same time.

Gorgeous park, nice long trail with plenty of places to stop and enjoy the day. Most of the trail is shaded. It is tough to find parking but worth it!

Beautiful park for a nature walk!

Great park. Has a 1.5 mile path around the lake with fitness stations. A playground for the kids, benches to sit and enjoy the view, and cool little spots to fish. Great to take family photographs. Has a pavilion with picnic tables. Three porta potties. Does get a little muddy after a rain so be prepared. The parking lot is small but you can park right across the street.

The setting is beautiful. The trail is 1.5 miles around the lake. There are spots for scenic views and strategically placed picnic tables. The downfalls are the lack of parking for the popularity of the park on nice days. Parking in the office park across the street is what many people do. The only restrooms are porta pots, I did not check to see if they are clean, and there are no water fountains so bring water. Lulu loved it and its a great trail walk for you and your dog.

Went here for the first time today and really liked it. Really nice area and the trail is perfect for running/walking with a nice view.

Did 4 laps around 7 miles! Pretty paths and lots of shade

Great park! The walking trail around the lake is a nice easy walk or run. Beautiful views, lots of places to stop and sit. Playground for kids.

Nice quiet place to walk around the lake

Beautiful 1.5 mile run. Well kept also.

Beautiful park. Great place for a leisurely walk or an intense run. It has a playground for children and several fishing piers for those wanting to catch some fish. Great place for all!

Dog-friendly park witha 1.5-mile trail around the lake and a playground. Also great for taking professional pictures for families, couples, etc...

Beautiful park! Relaxing gravel trail with walk out views over the water. Frequent fish and turtle sightings! Trees shading majority of the trail to keep you cool on sunny hot days.

Awesome park for walking alone or with friends anytime of the year

The new park at the front is really awesome, just not too much shade, so go early and bring sunscreen in warmer weather

A local treasure. It has a great playground for kids near the entrance. On a busy day, save some time and park across the street. Parking is limited at the main entrance. The huge lake and surrounding trees are a great break from the city live without having to travel far. Plenty of great spots for family photos and fishing off of several decks. The only negative is the bathrooms are the dreaded port a potties.

Fun trail around a very nice lake.

Excellent Family&Friends Place To Spend Quility Time....

Great Park, nice little getaway right in the middle of Chesapeake! We take the dogs and let them swim, and jump off the fishing per often. The trail is is good for a walk or run.

Great place for a walk, bike ride or chill. The best thing about this place is it is 85% shaded.

Beautiful park. Nice playgrounds, nice biking/running trail having a few more spots for fishing would be nice. Either a few more piers or a few more open bank spots.

Good place to workout and run... get there early otherwise its hard to find a place to park.

Family friendly, leashed dog friendly, work out stations and fishing!!

Very relaxing and also a great fishing spot.

Very friendly and great scenery for a photoshoot

Its so beautiful and serene! A great place to walk to clear your mind, ride your bike or get a nice run in. They have areas for fishing or pinics. Its a great fmaily park.

Love this place. It was a beautiful day.

Great place to visit. Amazing views. 1 1/2 mile loop.

Taking birthday walk at beautiful oak Grove Park.

Best Park Ive been to so far. Highly recommend!

We love this park! Nice playground, lots of benches & picnic tables. Its beautiful!

Great place to walk & destress!
