Berrien County’s newest park is now open to the public.

Paw Paw River County Park in Watervliet will be free to access. Berrien County Parks Director Brian Bailey told us earlier this year the new park will be similar to Galien River County Park, only smaller.

The park sits on former brownfield property right off M-140. It covers an area east of the road, across the river, and on an island in the Paw Paw River.

Once you get to the island, you’ll find a boardwalk, walking trails, two viewing locations that could be used for fishing, and boat access. A grand opening for Paw Paw River County Park was held Thursday.
