With over 150 parks, Milwaukee is full of amazing greenery. This park, however, is out of this world! For the best views of Lake Michigan and downtown, celebrations all summer long, and awesome playgrounds for the kids, this lakeside park blows the rest out of the water. If you haven’t been to this beautiful park in Bay View, you must add it to your bucket list.
This incredible park sits on 47 acres and better yet, the shores of Lake Michigan. The Bay View park is home to some of the best events of the summer and is one of the most relaxing spots in the city.
Whether you need a spot to let the kids roam on the playground, or a beer garden to kick back and have a drink, this park has it all. This bike trail even attaches to the Oak Leaf Trail!

Besides the playground, the views, and the beer garden, South Shore is home to some of Milwaukee's best summer events. The South Shore Farmer's Market has thousands flocking to the park every year, and the fireworks on the 4th of July are huge! Even if you're not interested in these happenings, you can book your own event (or wedding!) in the beautiful South Shore Pavilion.
Besides the dog walkers (and there are dozens), this park is home to much wildlife. There have been fox and deer sightings, and these friendly ducks call South Shore home.
South Shore offers amazing views of the lake and downtown; there's no better place to stop and take a breather from life. Plus, there's always ample parking if you're not within walking distance.
South Shore Park is located at 2900 South Shore Dr., Milwaukee.
