Dawson Park has the most beautiful location! The sun shimmer like diamonds and The mountains in the background are breathtaking all year round. If you get a chance, stop by and check out Dawson Park.

Dawson park is right next to Macintosh lake. The playground equipment was well kept and fun for the kids. The lake is beautiful and not too crowded.

Great place to go paddle boarding or kayaking. Crowded but that doesn’t detract from the beauty!

Pretty good. Beautiful view. Water is best in the spring. Goose and pet poop can be an issue.
