Residents and neighbors in our village share over sixty acres of Lake Park Parks and Common Areas. All year round, we enjoy unique landmarks, vistas, recreation and gathering spaces-- all well as lakes and parks – and all connected by a network of paved walkways.
Parks: Barnett Park, Founders Park, Lake Charles Pier, Russell Park, Veterans Park and several playground areas are open year round and are subject to maintenance by the Parks and Recreation Commission. All pets must be on a leash at all times. Please be a responsible pet owner and pick up after your pets.
Ponds: The ponds in Lake Park have distinctly different features. One attracts arrivals at the entrance to Lake Park Road, a few feature fountains and provide natural habitat for wildlife. The Village of Lake Park by permit allows fishing in eight ponds. All ponds are catch and release. Please do not feed the waterfowl.
The Park Policy & Reservation Guidelines 1) reflect the need to enhance, preserve, protect and maintain Lake Park Parks and Common Areas for the benefit of the entire community, and 2) offer groups the opportunity to reserve certain areas for meetings and special events of a non-profit nature. The Parks and Recreation Commission is committed to balance opportunities for reservations in the Common Areas with availability for general public use.
