Providence Park (Toledo Metroparks) Grand Rapids

A really nice public park on the Maumee River at Providence Dam. The shelter house is rarely used but open to the public. You can in shelter house and see hundreds of feet in all directions to avoid detection. Even when the park is full , people are rarely up in the shelter house. If so...there miles of trails throughs wood ot along the river with ample discreet areas. There is no fee for use of park.

Best time
