Kalamazoo Beaches

Woods Lake Park

2600 Oakland Drive, Kalamazoo, MI

On this edition of #DiscoverKalamazo it’s week 2 of top beaches near Kalamazoo and today I’m featuring Woods Lake Park.  Woods Lake Park is in the heart of Kalamazoo near the Winchell/Oakwood neighborhoods and is right across the street from Oakwood Plaza on Oakland Drive in Kalamazoo.  Located on 6-1/2 acres, it has a small lake with a sandy beach that starts out pretty shallow, which is great for the kiddos.  The lake is surrounded by woods on all sides, there’s a nice walking path that goes around the lake and a place to launch your canoe or kayak or paddle board.   If you work nearby, this is a great place to escape on your lunch hour.  Enoy and get out there and have some fun Kalamazoo!
