It's a great little park, and there's a new building there now that is a sustainable building (straw bale construction)You can rent canoes and kayaks and bikes and skateboard equipment PLUS there is the Wattle & Daub canteen there now that had awesome burgers and ice cream!! It's supports a local non profit organization that helps with youth transportation, so it's a win win! Definitely stop there and grab a cone if you are in Bancroft!
