JEFFERSON PARK
|
329 Jefferson Avenue, Canandaigua, NY 14424
|
Description: This playground in the heart of Canandaigua has thrill seeking metal slides, a tire swing, plenty of opportunities for climbing and a skate park nearby. If heading out on a nice summer day, grab some cash as you might spot some nearby garage sales!

KERSHAW PARK
|
155 Lakeshore Dr, Canandaigua, NY 14424
|
Pros: Kershaw is a beautiful park located right along Canandaigua Lake. There is a nice breeze coming from the lake and a beach with lifeguards nearby. There are paved paths to stroll the lake and fishing access.
Cons: This playground is aimed toward older children with open access to the water and fairly close proximity to the parking lot. There are not any swings and the playground is small. Though the playground is free, there is a fee to get into the swimming area. More on that here. Notes: Dogs are not allowed in the beach or bathhouse area of Kershaw Park.

LEONARD R. PIERCE MEMORIAL PARK
|
5655 Goodale Road, Canandaigua, NY 14424
|
Pros: This is an adorable park with fun equipment to play on. The equipment seems to be next to new and in beautiful condition. Along with the play area there are two open are air pavilions, grills, baseball field and volleyball net up and ready for use. Bathrooms were on site and open to the public.
Cons: It is on a busy road but for the truck watchers in your life it’s truck heaven.

ONANDA PARK
|
4965 Co Rd 16, Canandaigua, NY 14424
|
Pros: This Playground is adjacent to a beautiful beach on Canandaigua Lake. After playing, kids can cool off in the water. The playground is well kept, with a variety of play structures. Lifeguards are on duty at the beach. Cons: There are not swings on the playgrounds. This is one of the few playgrounds with a parking fee. Although you can see the water from the playground, it is not a quick run back and forth to the playground and water. The beach is made of of stones rather than sand. Notes: The playground is hidden behind one of the lodges. Head towards the lake and you will see basketball courts on your left. The playground is there as well! There is a fee for parking: $5 on weekdays and $7 on weekends. |
