Beautiful spot that is taken for granted.
Nice spot to park yr car & unload the bikes for a ride up/down the canal. Historic lock, nice place for a picnic too.
Love the water whether the ocean or the river.
Great place for a bike ride, some slight hills but all paved and clear direction to Pittsford, Brighton & the city of Rochester!
Excellent learning experience. Lockmaster is nice and helpful. If you are interested in Erie Canal, make a stop.
Well maintained and nice to sit in and watch the water and people
We live a few blocks from here and we really enjoy exploring the area as a family.

2021-06-08Great place to target many different species of fish. I seem to have the most luck drop-shotting live minnows, but you can also use worms (even under a float) or crankbaits, etc. All of the locks look very similar, so you can use the same techniques at any of them. The fish like to sit in the current and wait for bait fish to come floating by, so fish the current! Just make sure youre using at least a 1/2 ounce weight to get your bait down.

2020-08-17Its a Natures gift for the people living in Pittsford and Brighton Area. What not you can do in the Canal Trail road - Walking, Biking, skating, picnic... Whole of the Trial is picturesque and the nice breeze really encourages you to spend more time on the trial. Good Point to start the Kayaking too on the other side of the lock where you have good docks. Enjoyed this place alot. One of the Nature blessings for people.

2018-05-14Nice place to park and go fishing, for a walk, bike ride, or run. Plenty of parking and picnic tables too. Very interesting place to see how the lock system works as well. Make sure to go after April when the canal is filled.

2020-03-10Nice little resting place along the Erie Canal with picnic benches and some parking spots. State recently installed a self-served bike station to help mend your bike.

2019-03-30The path is nicely paved along this area of the canal and there is lighting along some of it as well in case youre out at dawn or dusk. The park area usually has tables and a porta potty in summer.

2019-05-23This is a great place to picnic and watch boats go through the lock. It also has a drinking fountain outside which is convenient for the many bicyclists and joggers.
