    Back in the 30s my mom and dad moved to Detroit from northern Michigan, dad worked for Chevrolet and mom as a beautician, they talked often how preAC people would take blankets and pillows to belle isle to sleep on hot summer nights.

    Belle Isle in the 1960s, good memories. Had a boat at the Detroit Yacht Club-hydroplane races, JL Hudson fireworks, marvelous bridge from the Detroit side. Love the way the Island looks now!

    Are you a local? Because if you were, you wouldnt have left off the "Hipster Beach" Lagoon and sandbars on the north end of Belle Isle just down from the golf course. That is one of the BEST spots on Belle Isle, but hey... only locals know about it ;)

      The water is tested like all lakes and public beaches in Michigan and other areas. Just like many bodies of water you don't want to swim after large rains and floods. However it is mostly clean or as clean as most fresh water in the country at this point!
