Best time to visit Year Round

This is one of Bayville's older parks, with lots of mature pines and cedars giving real shade instead of the planted-last-year kind. Leashed dogs can walk the grounds, hang out at the picnic tables, or sit with you near the creek. The swim beach is off limits to dogs though, so if your pup's a big water lover, this isn't the spot for a splash day. Basketball and volleyball courts, a playground, and a gazebo round it out. Weekends in summer it fills up fast with local families, so go early if you want your pick of tables.
