I like the fact that Edgewater Park exists, and that there is in fact a place where you can actually, like, SEE water.
I went here once on a beautiful day, but I guess all the creeps were out that day too, as well as all the bird and dog crap. The Creeps & the Crap turned me off a little bit. I got stared at by mostly every man lurking around the parking lot, and by all the women in their lounge chairs not far from the parking lot. (And not in that "Hey, Mami" type of way...more like a "What the fuck are you doing here" type of way).
I saw the beach in the distance, but didn't venture down there because I was generally disturbed. In fact while I was there I decided that I would call it "Sketchwater Park" in my mind. Well, now it's on Yelp too...oops.
However, I know better than to have one negative experience and think that's all there is. i will return but I think I'm going to have to take backup. And some plastic baggies for my shoes.
