| (1) Take exit 94 off
I-55 (East Lake Shore Drive exit) or go east on Stevenson Drive. Cross
Spaulding Dam to East Lake Shore Drive and continue past Lincoln Greens
Golf Course and through the curve that sweeps along the shore of the
lake. After the curve, the road straightens out. A short way ahead,
you'll see a sign for Henson Robinson Zoo on your right. At this sign,
turn right onto Long Bay Drive. Pass the Zoo and continue on Long Bay
until you are approaching Vachel Lindsay Bridge. Beach Park will be on
your right before you reach the turnoff into the Lindsay Bridge Boat
Launch parking area. (2) Take West Lake Shore
Drive south from Stevenson Drive and follow the road for about 4.5
miles. After rounding a sharp turn, West Lake Shore Drive will run into
Long Bay Drive (West Lake Shore will veer off to the right). Continue
straight onto Long Bay and cross Vachel Lindsay Bridge. Immediately
after crossing the bridge, you will see the entrance into the Lindsay
Bridge Boat Launch parking area on your left. Beach Park lies just east
of this parking area.
