Nice space and I wish they would not kick people out so early.
Beautiful Place! Magical scenery. Great place for weddings and social events
Love it. Low key. Typically isnt overcrowded. Absolutely beautiful. Can be a bit on trashy side by picnic tables. But otherwise nice.
They really need to clean up here better. Lots of garbage laying in the walking paths and sand. people walking around smoking weed. I dont recommend taking children here for family day
I always came here every summer Sunday. The only thing I dont like is finding a parking spot and the commute back to my car.
I love this park. There is a walk trail. There is also a spot to play and picnic and to look at Lake Michigan. Love the atmosphere.
Great beach access! Lots of parking. $5 if youre a Gary, IN resident/ $7 for non-residents.
The bathrooms are so clean and the beach is very clean too, I really recommend this place!!!
Watched the storm roll in, beautiful nature in the raw
Nice spot to sit and listen to the lake with a view of the city lights.
Beautiful historical site. Great setting for events.
First time visiting this beach. Friendly staff, clean beach and very close to home. We will definitely visit again.
Nice area to hang out with friends or family
Parking could be better. Wish some folks wouldnt litter
Great place for family. You get it all here. Parks, beaches, dunes and grassy areas for picnics
Its a good place to go and I love it.
Awesome beach, ate at beach bums ? I think that was the name.
Nice quiet beach in a nice park
It was okay for a quick beach stop with the fam. The only thing is that there are no real bathrooms. Atleast where we were it was all portapotties. Thank god we wore our bathing suits due to no where to change. Must bring own food because there were no food shacks around. It wasnt horrible over all but michigan city has been the best so far in Indiana.
A beautiful park with a lot to do. It was completely redone with a new kayak/canoe launch onto the Calumet lagoon, a snack shop, all new walking/bike trails and an amazing view of the Chicago skyline.
First time there , nothing was open , but it was nice
Had a great time nice place for private parties.
Memories of my childhood. Wow have things changed.
So much fun kayaking. Ive seen ppl fishing.
Went here for a food truck festival....it was so fun. Nice crowd. Great music. Security provided by Gary PD... just needed more places to sit and maybe spray the grass so we arent attacked by the bugs. Lastly...advertise a little more too. This event was too nice not for people to really know about it. I hope to see this again.
We were the florists for an amazing wedding today. The Aquatorium is just the most gorgeous backdrop for a wedding!!!
Very nice beautiful beach
Very nice place to visit.
Very beautiful limited parking no bathrooms but worth a visit
It was an overcast day so we didnt get to experience the beach but Marquette Park is great for walking and taking in the scenery, especially the lagoon.
Always the quietest beach in the morning! They do a great job keeping the entire area clean and manicured! The beach is a bit messed up at the moment though.
I love comin out here!
The police are not understanding here
The greatest place in Indiana. BEAUTIFUL!
Love tis place
Very scenic on clear days you can see Chicago skyline to the west. This is an excellent park for fishing picnicking or physical exercise. Marquette Park is jewel alongside Lake Michigan. A place to savor all year long.
1st time at here and from out of state.. This beach is covered with litter. Broken chairs, used diapers, ciggeretts, and just trash. There is very little pride to keep a clean beach. This beach is not worth the trip.
The parking is limited but the entire place is a class above any beach on Lake Michigan. Broad walkways. Picnic areas, benches, tables, shelters, play ground and the beach is clean.
A nice beach to workout.
Salve for my Beach loving Florida soul
Beautiful place.
! I go here every year from miles away to go to this clear water beach. Sometimes theres decent sized waves to enjoy yourself in. Also some sand bars. Five dollars to park all day and they only take cash.
Visited here it’s a awesome place even when the weather is less than desirable. Has a lot of features for young and old alike !!
Beautiful place to spend time with nature!
Loved the beach!
Love this beach,Ive been going here for vacation every year.The trail of sand to go walking literally burned my feet its too long to be walking in the scorching sand even with shoes on my feet the sand was horrible .I recommend the city of Gary to put a boardwalk cause the sand is like hot coal.
Lovely place, beach is wonderful.
AWESOME GOT MARRIED HERE and the fact that its a Tuskegee Airmen museum is even better beautiful building beautiful views and you can see the city when youre on the lake
The airman display top noch
Good place 2 chill
This the jewel of Gary! It was my mothers favorite place to just sit and enjoy nature.I went there recently to remember her on the anniversary of her death and it was more beautiful than I remember.Theres a little island called Patterson island with two little bridges connecting to the main park and a pavilion for parties and weddings overlooking a lagoon. Beautiful and peaceful.
Such a lovely chunk of nature
Pretty impressive place to visit. Definitely worth the visit. We stopped by in poor weather and still had a good 2 hour visit. Nice clean place awesome seaneary. Would definitely recommend. Parking is free and have a snack shop. Wasnt open when we were there , menu look very reasonable.
My favorite on the lakeshore!
Parking lot is small but great beach
I got a $155 ticket due to a sign that is pretty much hidden that says you have to pay for parking. I brought 5 friends from out of town and we all had to pay the city of Gary this ticket I hope they got there moneys worth. I will never go back
Garys best kept secret
We had this clean, handy beach all to ourselves on a Monday!
Beautiful building, beautiful views and you can see the city when youre on the lake.
May be the nicest Lake Michigan facility Ive ever been to. Everything is brand new - the picnic areas, the grills, the concession stands, the restrooms. Free parking everywhere on the street. Theres even hoses that you can pull out of the sides of the concession buildings to rinse sand off your feet. I live in Chicago and can now quit battling the crowds and parking nonsense at the downtown and south side beaches.
Wonderful Place!
Nice chillin spot
Nice place for a wedding
Very good for weddings and happy family times.I like!!
Love it!
Beautiful views and you can see the city when youre on the lake!
Beautiful place to relax.
Neat park to wander around in and being there the first week of Oct I pretty much had the place to myself. I dont imagine its like this in July and August.
Trash everywhere and lifeguards were nowhere to be seen until they were kicking us off beach.
Really like this beach
Great for surfing.
I love to walk and read run at their park
This is an excellent park for fishing picnicking or physical exercise.
Need a little more cleaning of debris from sand and water.
We had a blast!
Great place to hit the beach on a hot summer day. The sunsets are amazing.
Its a great place to spend time with family and friends! Beautiful beach! Just dont forget the sunscreen.
A great place to bring the whole family out for the picnic. Right on Lake Michigan beautiful scene it and a wonderful outstanding Park.
Its a decent beach
Beautiful park on the lakeshore with a view of the Chicago skyline. Very well maintained.
Because I live in Gary, Indiana. And because I live here!
Beach is a bit dirty but not bad otherwise
Its a beautiful place
What a beautiful place & what a wonderful tribute to the Tuskegee Airmen. Very nice amenities
Beautiful scenery
Excellent beach front setting
