About Peninsular Park

Peninsular Park covers about five acres of woodland on the east bank of the Huron River, just west of LeForge Road. It sits at the northern end of Ypsilanti's riverfront park system. Visitors can fish here and use picnic shelters and picnic tables. The city's facility page lists its hours and a contact line for the parks office, and it points to separate information about the Peninsular Paper Company Dam.
