It’s a great community park! My only minor complaints are that there isn’t enough parking close to some of the picnic structures and that there’s only restrooms at the boat house. Also, it’s expensive to rent watercraft from the boathouse, but I suppose that’s how the city pays for it.

Great place to get your steps in if you're in the area. Pretty view and lots of exercise stretch stations along the 1 mile jaunt around the lake.

I have been coming to Waneka since I was young. It's such a beautiful place to walk around if you need a little peace and quiet. There is also Frisbee golf on one side and a park on the other.
