Madison Park & Beach
E Madison Street & E Howe StreetAbout
At the end of East Madison Street, just past the quaint boutiques and gourmet restaurants, this long, sloping expanse of lake beach has a fishing dock, a diving dock, tons of sand, a bathhouse and towering retirement homes, which are built out over the water. In summer, only the hasty departure of the afternoon sun (the beach faces northeast) and the aggressive Canada geese get in the way of a perfect day at the beach. Even the ice cream truck makes regular calls. This is a favorite spot of Madison Park families.
