Lake Lansing is a great place for the whole family! Enclosed play area, so you don’t lose your little one! Bike track for the bigger kids along with rental paddle boats & kayaks! You can bring your own fishing stuff and even grill out in park grills. The beach area is the perfect size, not too big, so you are able to watch your children. Yes, the park has life guards (but remember YOU must watch your child) and you cannot use unsafe floating toys or unapproved life jackets (floating toys give children & parents a false sense of safety, watch your child). There is a concession stand with great items and good prices. Friday nights have free music, blow up slide & bounce house!! How great is that! We LOVE LAKE LANSING!

Excellent views and fun for all. Love the new dock. Great taste of the lake life nestled in Lansing.

This is a beautiful lake and enjoyable if your kids like to look at the lake and wade in shallow water. The *beach* is very small and only allowed area in the water to go is a small wading area, not deep enough to swim. Additionally, there are no water toys (inflatable floating devices, balls, frisbees) allowed on the beach. My kids are bummed out as I am as well. It is a disappointing experience, waste of a 1 hr one way drive and we will never come back. However, if you enjoy sitting on a shore looking at the water, this is the place for you!!

Visited on a weekday in July. The beach is really that small. Not sure if it's the water level or what. We arrived early in the day to keep the heat to a minimum . When the lifeguard showed up around 11:30, she ordered everyone out of the water (probably about 100 people by then) until noon. I guess if it is summer, and folks are clearly arriving before the posted time, either lock the place up, or get a lifeguard there sooner. Regardless, the water was fine and the sand was fine. Just out of the way and small.

Recently at the beach and noticed the life guards telling the children that they couldn't have toys in the water, beach balls, or life jackets...... Is this a new rule? I probably won't bring my kids if it is. I want my younger kids that don't swim well to have life jackets on. It didn't seem like fun for the kids that were there.
