Where all the action takes place in downtown New Baltimore. Where Washington Street ends at the bay. Our city beach area is there just beyond the picnic grounds and pavilions. There is a nice playscape for the children and a fishing area. My kids lived at this beach when they were younger. It's so peaceful. more
