Great view of hudson. Nice pier to walk out on and relax. Small walking trails with interesting metal art. Small play area good for kids 5 to 10. Open space, boat launching, train tracks etc. A few places to eat within walking distance (brewery, taco bar, coffee place, etc) also there is an excellent bakery South st Bakery. Must buy something there. Public rest room available.
Wide-open park space along the waterfront. Clean and well-mowed. Bathrooms on-site in season, and free streetside or metered parking nearby. The park features a playground for younger kids. Many options for eateries around the park ranging from lower to high end. MetroNorth is directly adjacent, which is a mixed blessing insofar as it makes the park very accessible, but disrupts the park's tranquility with screeching train whistles every thirty minutes or so.
This park I discovered when it hosted 2018’s Irish Festival. The park is very spacious, with a waterfront and playground. Grounds very well maintained. Unfortunately the park’s serenity is disturbed frequently by MetroNorth’s trains which arrive at and depart from Peekskill’s station about twice per hour.
The reason I come home. Just watching the river flow. There is a great playground and a place to picnic and BBQ.
Beautiful and peaceful park with amazing views, well-groomed grounds, and interesting sculptures throughout. If you can, get there for a sunset at the park's sandy beach with views of the Hudson and Bear Mountain.
FYI the park is actually two adjacent parks: Riverfront Green and Scenic Hudson Park at Peekskill Landing.
