From Main Street (Grand Bend) take HWY #21 South (Ontario St) to Lakeview Ave (Just past the Catholic Church). Turn right onto Lakeview Ave. Go over the bridge and there is a parking lot on the right (Clubhouse parking lot). Leave your car there and walk across the street and you will see a path that runs along the old river bed. This is the cruising path. The main cruise area runs between the parking lot and a culvert (that allows you to walk across the river) about a 5 minute walk down the path. Just before the culvert there is a park bench. Most people just ist on this bench and wait. Many a has been received on this bench. This is a heavily wooded area and there are lots of dark spots for anyting you may want to do.
