I am from the city, and Rockwood Park is my favorite place to go! The swimming at Rockwood park is okay. I enjoy the trial rides on horseback. It is just a nice play to get out and see people. The dog park is great to have for my pup! My absolute favorite is getting on the trails (part of... More

When ever we visit Saint John we visit Rockwood Park! Our kids (ages 5-18years) all enjoy it. There is a playground that accomadates kids with special needs, there are horse and trails to walk. You can even camp there!

Many residents of Saint John don't realize how impressive this park is. Located in the heart of the city, the Park serves hundreds of acres of beautiful wilderness along with a variety of activity operators to help visitors enjoy it. Lily's Cafe offers wonderful lakeside dining and often much warmer weather than can be found in the city's downtown core.... More

We had a function here recently and the service was wonderful. The lake is beautiful in winter. The appetizers we had were very flavourful and diverse.

This is one of the biggest parks within city limits in Canada, and there is no shortage of things to do! From golf to zoo, from a licensed cafe to rock-climbing, and from beautiful walking trail of various difficulty to pedal boats. During the summer, I come here at least three times a week; it's a great place to have... More

We travel to saint John every year and camp at Rockwood. The conditions are good and the times we have are always great but there are always things about the place that pisses us off. The smell of saint John in the morning will wake you up quicker than 10 cups of coffee. If that doesn't wake you up, the... More

I love going for walks in the park and sitting on the grass in the summer. So many things to enjoy and lots of activites in the summer for children. Sometimes I will just sit by the water and read.
