A nice park. It has a very easy walk around the swimming areas and throughout the park (the sign makes it look much further than it actually is). The water isn't super clean but seems pretty safe and calm for swimming in. The off-leash dog area is pretty open and easy for dogs to get in the water, both deep water and shallow area because of a giant rock formations that juts into the lake.

Huge park with two nice small swimming lakes, (personal favourite is the upper) and tons of trails. Great trout fishing too. Expect to see lots of cute dogs.

Remind me of woods scenes seen in movies. Live sequential vegetation. Balanced green of ferns, scramblers, climbers and massive trees all at once. Nature at peace.

This is one of my most favorite parks in southern Nanaimo. If I come here often with my kids and by myself with plenty of activities to choose from. You can swim or fish run or bring your dog to play in the off-leash area. Also good battle spot for Pokemon go

It's a great park for walking and light swimming, and the entire upper, or 2nd, dam is a dog off leash area. There is no playground area for children, and lots of cyclists and dogs zipping around, that's not a bad thing, just something to consider if you plan on visiting
