Very pleasant park. Well maintained trails, multiple paths many of which lead down to the water. New bathroom facilities, and the beach is great in summer time. Lots of birds and other animals around, so be wary else your dog is liable to go bounding off.

I love it here so much. A refuge. Great for swimming. Definitely go during off peak hours if you can.

Great location for a picnic, walks and a quick dip on a hot summer day! Has a water fountain, restrooms and lots of benches. We have our annual staf bbq here, heads up just gas grills are allowed.

Nice facilities, small beach, lake water is temperate and seemed clean. Beautiful for a sunset evening at the beach

The water is warm, the beach is clean. The recommendation go early because the parking lot is small.

SO MANY DOGS OFF LEASH. With ENTITLED humans behind them. …and a bunch of dead fish that sat there for like 5 days. So many people- bacteria skyrocketed in the water- loud music and charcoal grills everywhere - people parking in handicap spots - drinking and trash everywhere ZERO ENFORCEMENT

I enjoy visiting Shannon beach. It a childhood memories. The beach is clean, well maintained. But,I do have one rave. I visited the beach earlier this week, it was pretty full. Lot's of people swimming. I did notice the lifeguard chairs had been empty all day. I arrived around 12ish and left at6:30pm. The four or five that were there were not doing their jobs. They weren't even looking/facing the beach area. If there had been an unexspected accident , none of those kids would have been prepared or responsible Most of the time on their phones, laughing, goofing off and loudly swearing. I hope these kids aren't getting a pay check for doing absolute nothing 😕. Concerned citizen
