| - Being from NEO, I'm used to my fair share of gross Lake Erie beaches that tend to be more trash-heapy than anything else. Then one day I came here. Hearts in my eyes!
It's clean! There's plenty of space, shaded and sunny, to lay out! The kiddo loves digging around in the sand and frolicking in the water which, for lake water, seems not unreasonably questionable. After you're done, there's an ice cream stand (it used to be Honeyhut, but I drove past the other day and it's now Mitchell's?) and plenty of grills, picnic tables, and shelters.
Parking is a bit of a nightmare. A suggestion: either get there early and nab one of the shady spots close to the entrance, or park across the street on the grass and take the pedestrian tunnel down to the beach. And, if you're bringing kids in the middle of the summer, I've noticed that coming before 10ish ensures that you'll get a good spot on the beach and the place won't be overrun just yet with teenagers.
Go pack a picnic and enjoy a very nice day at the beach. :)
