25 ac. man made lake and wetland, created in 1997, designed to provide a natural ecosystem that would be beneficial to both storm water treatment and recreational use by local residents. The lake incorporates a series of shallow marshes separated with deeper water basins. The deeper waters provide habitat for fish, waterfowl and shorebirds, while the shallower water provides a niche for amphibians, snails and aquatic invertebrates.

A central feature of the park is a distinctive steel pedestrian bridge coloured a bright blue.
