Set in the midst of Central Michigan country, which is known for its abundant lakes and rivers, Gladwin is a pleasant little town in which to stop and relax, and is made all the more pleasant by this lovely city park along the Cedar River. The recreational facilities here are unusually complete; camping and picnic grounds are supplemented by tennis courts, basketball courts, volleyball courts, and a playground for children; river swimmers enjoy a sandy beac,h and a riverside path makes for scenic strolling.
