Oakledge Park

Oakledge Park is a waterfront park on Lake Champlain in Burlington featuring two beach areas and open spaces for recreation and relaxation. The grounds include picnic areas, walking and biking paths, playground facilities, and sheltered pavilion spaces.

Oakledge Park developed as Burlington opened its waterfront to the public, becoming a key recreational space for the community over the decades. The park played an important role in shaping how residents use and enjoy the lakefront.

The park serves as a gathering place where locals and visitors come together for outdoor events and celebrations throughout the year. You'll notice families, friends, and community groups using the space to connect and share moments by the water.

The park is open to visitors throughout the warmer months and offers good swimming conditions during summer. Reserved pavilions and picnic areas make it easy to organize group gatherings or casual outings.

The park is home to an accessible treehouse built within a white oak tree, allowing visitors of all abilities to experience nature at height. This feature demonstrates thoughtful design that welcomes everyone to enjoy the space in unexpected ways.
