200' ADA-accessible Pier Now Open!

Lake Metroparks and the Painesville Township Board of Park Commissioners partnered on a shoreline project that included protection of the shoreline, a 200' pier and ADA access to Lake Erie and its spectacular views, sunsets and fishing.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held on October 17, 2017 to mark the opening of the pier.

Although park hours are 6 am to 11 pm, the pier is accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week, but will be closed during inclement weather. For safety and enjoyment of the pier:

• Swimming and diving is prohibited due to hazardous underwater conditions.
• Cleaning fish is prohibited on the pier.
• Alcoholic beverages are prohibited.
• Riding bikes, skatebords or scooters is prohibited on the pier.
• Feeding wildlife is prohibited.
