Mishawaka is blessed with 26 public parks, each with its own unique natural attributes. For
boating enthusiasts, there are four parks with boat launches on the St. Joseph River. Water
skiers and sailors can indulge in their pastimes in the river’s east section. Incidentally, this is
one of the best rivers in the state for fishing. Smallmouth bass, steelhead trout, Coho salmon,
Chinook salmon and walleye are plentiful in their seasons.
Find us on social media!
Mishawaka parks also boasts an excellent swimming pool, five splash pads and
accommodations for tennis and various field sports. Disc golf is another popular park sport
(Wilson). For more traditional golfers, the 18-hole Eberhart-Petro Golf Course offers plenty of
challenges. In the winter, skaters can show off their skills on the ice rink at Merrifield Park or
thrill to the lighted tubing runs at Wilson Park.

For over 85 years, Eberhart-Petro Municipal Golf Course has served the City of Mishawaka and surrounding areas with a fantastic golf course. First opened in 1929
with the first nine holes on the south side of the St. Joseph River then expanding to 18 holes in 1949, which includes four river crossings. This may be the most well-
manicured municipal golf course you will ever play, and probably the toughest 6,000 yard, par-70 golf course in the Midwest. Built on only 89 acres, Eberhart-Petro
will challenge every level of golfer from beginner to the most-seasoned player. We invite you to come experience one of Mishawaka’s finest assets – Eberhart-Petro
