Lovely park which is kept fairly clean. I regularly play tennis there (with court reservations). When you reserve courts, you pay, but since these are well used courts, you are assured a court because you can kick off those who just were walk ons (which are most of the players). Many lights are out, and there are never any brooms...

On the national register of historic places, this park has something for EVERYONE! It's surprising that so many of the reviews are about food when this is a park. Yes there is a wonderful bistro with food, but it's a glorious park first and foremost. So much work was done recently to update stairways, bridges, equipment, and facilities that is...

Set in the beautiful Lake Park overlooking Michigan, the restaurant always delivers top of the line meals and a fabulous atmosphere. Whether for lunch with the girls, or a special dinner out, the food is some of the best in the area.

Highlight to me was the North Point Lighthouse. There were also many nice walking trails with fantastic views of Lake Michigan. Beatuiful old homes on the area.

Did you know the same architect that designed Central Park in NYC did Lake Park? It is true and it is a lovely park. Look for the lions on the little bridge - do their faces look familiar? Also look for the lighthouse that is still a ways back from the bluff in the park. A great place for a...

Lake Park is on the north side of Milwaukee and right next to Lake Michigan. It is a nice area that is seeing much improvement in recent years. There is a small par 3 golf course, restaurant, and lawn bowling area. There are many people taking photos in the park all the time. I wish the bathroom facilities were better...

This park is one of the best places to take a walk, to ride a bike, to visit Lake Park Bistro, to play golf, to see a great view of the Lake. Amazingly romantic!

I admit that I'm a park snob so my opinion may be harsh.
Clearly this is an Olmsted-designed park. And perhaps this park is on the rise and is getting some TLC after years of neglect, but I have been running through this park on several occassions and it is currently in poor shape.
Original path routes seems to have...

Very impressed with what the city has done with the lakefront. So much open public space, and so well cared for. Good job Milwaukee!
