I have visited the beach at this location many, many times. This was the first time I've ever been asked to pay to park in the lot. The young lady(?) standing at the gate flagged me down as I entered and popped her sucker out of her mouth long enough to inform me that "it's $5 to park." Nothing official, no sign or anything...just someone standing near the gate. I informed her that I would be leaving, which I did, but I stopped right next to the restaurant and observed the same young person wave two cars through. I went back to ask if the parking fee was for everyone or only for some people, to which the response was a bold faced lie, while pulling out a wad of cash, telling me that the other two cars had been charged...they hadn't, I was watching. The next week I went to the beach again, and guess what...no charge, no one guarding the parking lot. Nothing. I wonder if this is the beginning of the city of Gary becoming a money hungry, nickle and dime grabbing place like it's sister city Chicago.

Getting better and better. Historic landmark. Great view of the beach. Nice scenery. This place has come a long long way! Nice lake front in Miller Beach!!

Had a blast!! Beach and water were exceptionally clean. Not crowded at all.

I am glad to see they rehabbed the bath house.

Beautiful scenery, all part of the Indiana Dunes beach. Pretty bridges, flowers and nice scenic trails. All overlooking the beautiful beach.

I can remember playing football in the grass south of Oak Street across from the bath house & my dad coaching Pop Warner football by the tennis courts.

What a great park on the lake front.

A great park & great place to grow up.
