Petrifying Springs Park

What a beautiful ,clean park with such wonderful people everywhere. The Autumn 🍁 colours made it more precious .We had a wonderful hike with amazing nature memories. Park is really big with playground, golf course, barbecue place. So many parking spots and always sheriffs checking around. People working out, jogging, playing, laughing, walking their dogs . It's lovely

The newly renovated Pets Park! Wow, it’s Breathtaking 😍‼ Definitely going to be a new fav spot for my family. My kids had such a great time. The Scenery is gorgeous and the bugs weren't too bad. Loved all the bench seating availability, it was nice to take a break and take quick stroll on the trails and come back to play. My kids absolutely loved it and the multiple slides were a great touch. Highly recommended for independent (4 & up) kids.

Location: Area 4, Right after the big Bridge

Pets, as locals call it, is fantastic. One of the oldest parks in Kenosha, it has something for everyone.Hiking trails, picnic areas, an amazing beer garden, and fantastic golfing. About an hour from Chicago, it is an easy and worthwhile destination, especially for family's.

This is a wonderful park. It is very large and well maintained. The bathrooms have running water and are clean. There are creeks, forest paths, picnic pavilions, playgrounds, grassy fields, wide paved sidewalks for walking and biking, and large parking lots. It's a fun place to spend time.

Super nice walking trail which takes you through wooded areas as well as the golf course. Roughly 3.3 miles.

Such a beautiful park! Lovely river, flowers, walking/bike paths many picnic shelters, volleyball courts, golf course.

Awesome place, and huge! We ended up at 5 miles with just an outer loop, not including the many inside loops and deviations. Very cool biergarten as well, a bit pricey and ONLY CASH, so keep that in mind. Trails are NOT MARKED, so use Strava or if you're lucky, take a pic of a map if you see one (not to be confused with golf cart paths). Overall we would come back for each season to see the changes.

When we were children, long ago, we loved hiking on the trails along the bluffs at "Pets". This past weekend, mid-April '23, was our first exploration of the well-maintained trails at this popular Kenosha County Park. It is fairly strenuous in some places. In one spot a recently-fallen tree had not yet been cleared from the path, and it was so big it was necessary to go around the root ball -- but there was no big danger. There are steps made of 6X6 pieces of wood, which are well-anchored and stable in the soil. There are places in some ravines that are fairly steep, and there are no handrails. There are other places in the park where elderly and wheelchair-riding folks can go for a leisurely tour on mostly level trails. We exchanged happy greetings with lots of people we had never met before, which is always enjoyable.

Incredible and huge place. Many accessible paved trails with plenty of off trails as well. Wooded areas and more prairie like areas with some creeks. Tons of rentable shelters and adjacent to a beautiful golf course. I enjoyed the wooded paved trail with my son who's in a wheelchair. We plan on coming back soon to explore more. We had to go quite a ways to find a restroom. All shelters were rented. Cool fire brick oven type shelters also. Lots of dogs, hikers, and bikes yet didn't feel crowded. Everyone was courteous. Everyone leashed their dogs. Clean and beautiful!

Absolutely gorgeous. Was there for my son's senior pictures and it was a piece of heaven. God makes a beautiful backdrop.

Love this place! Clean, plenty of parking, friendly dog park, plenty of walking trails, and a brand new playground.

We love the simplicity of pets! Bonus- we got to see some fish making more babies for us to enjoy at the park, it was soo cool!

Such a BEAUTIFUL park! The lush green grass, adorable German venue on site, and beautiful tall trees make it inviting to drive through and stop by.
We grabbed a beer or two and just enjoyed the weather, scenery and fellow park goers company.
The landscaping and terrain reminded me of home (I was visiting from Oregon), with the turning of the leaves on the trees

Lots of parking here and appeared to be dog friendly, as many people at the park had theirs with them.

Take time to stop by and enjoy!!

I love it here. Trails to explore, multiple playgrounds and picnic areas. It's always beautiful.

Very nice park. Includes: field, baseball field, walking/bike paths, dog park, and biergarten. The biergarten is very cute and the drinks/food are good. 👍🏻

You can always find a quiet place to relax. Beautiful nature. Free WiFi. Clean restrooms.

A lot of picnic areas and bike and walking trails..
I will bring my friends there and do barbequeing..

Nice new trails and walking paths. Love all the wildflowers and work to improve the park. Job well done. The new kids playground will be amazing when finished. Even saw 3 fawns on our walk by the creek.

This wonderful park has a winding road that leads to playgrounds, picnic shelters, walking trails, and yes, the beer garden. It is pretty updated and only a short distance from the city.

This place is amazing. We come to walk the trails with our pups. There is plenty of parking and places to sit. Absolutely beautiful and CLEAN!! We go as often as we can.
