Cosgrove Memorial Park

If you’re passing through Laporte on a road trip, this little park is worth the stop. The frozen rink with borrowable skates is honestly the thing that sets it apart — not something you expect to stumble across in a quiet neighborhood like this. Beyond that, you’ve got swings, a basketball court, and picnic tables if you need to stretch out and eat something. It’s low-key, never feels crowded, and works for pretty much any age.
