While passing through Baileys Harbor, we made a quick stop at this charming little park. The views are absolutely stunning, making it the ideal spot for sunset strolls and summer fun. Just a heads up, pets are not permitted in the park.

The beach offers a stunning view of the harbor and has a small sandy area that is easily accessible. However, I do miss being able to walk out onto the pier, as it is currently blocked off, dug up, and the boat docks and benches are no longer there.
