Miss K. • August 13, 2015One of my favorite Des Moines recreational places, Gray's Lake is wonderful for walks, bird watching, and boating. When my children were young, we spent a lot of time at the beach!
American Heart A. • December 14, 2011This is one of the largest parks in America, second only to Central park in New York City - get out there and enjoy it!
Melissa D. • May 17, 2014Great zoo and getting better! May not be as big as Henry Doorly in Omaha, but you can enjoy several hours there. Also very kid friendly.
American Heart A. • December 14, 2011One lap around the park is just shy of half a mile so take a few laps and really admire all this amazing public art!
Heidi M. • September 3, 2011Practice under the big blue sky! It's free every Saturday from June thru September.
Jennifer W. • August 22, 2015The lake is currently being dredged along with other improvements to the park. So have patience and check back!

Austin W. • January 13Leafy and residential, Des Moines’ Greater South Side is anchored by Grays Lake & MacRae Parks with views of the skyline to the north. Many dining options & the airport anchor the south.
