Visitor’s Guide, image gallery, and info for Brandenburg Park in New Baltimore/Chesterfield. Splash Pad, playground, trails, sports fields.

Brandenburg Park

Brandenburg Park is a 17-acre park located on the shoreline of Anchor Bay. Situated on Jefferson Avenue about ½ Mile south of 23 Mile Road, the park offers basketball, tennis, as well as sand volleyball courts. Other amenities include horseshoe pits, picnic areas, boat launches, restroom facilities, an ADA accessible playground, a children’s play area, a hike/bike path, and a 500-foot pier extending into Lake St. Clair.

Brandenburg Splash Pad

The Wayne and Joan Webber Splash Park in Chesterfield is open from 11:00 am – 7:00 pm Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day, weather permitting.

The splash pad is close to the parking. Also, there are plenty of picnic tables and pavilions for lunches.  However, seating around the splash pad was very sparse, the benches hardly accommodated all of the parents. The splash pad itself had a lot of fun features.  The play surface is cement, so I don’t recommend the splash pad for crawlers.

Brandenburg Park Playground

The rest of the park is beautiful.  Lots of shade, play equipment, a pier for fishing, volleyball court, pavilions for picnics, indoor restroom, as well as concessions.  One thing to remember, although they were not an issue on the splash pad, the fish flies were horrendous in the park.  They swarmed us as we walked to the play equipment.  Best avoid the shade, as that is where they like to hang out.

Park Admission

Parking is $5 per car, with season passes available.  Check the website for current rates. [Best_Wordpress_Gallery id=”181″ gal_title=”Brandenburg Park in Chesterfield”]
