Re: Valley Stream State Park???

Hi,

I am from VS and I didn't know there was any nice places inside the state park for pics! I haven't been there in years but I thought it was just a bunch of benches & bbq pits.
Do share though if you find out!!!

Re: Valley Stream State Park???

Im originally from VS. i dont think there are any nice places to take pics in the state park.. its just woody

but there is a gazebo by the public library.. that might be a better place.

OHHHHHHH... what about behind the VS pool... in the park. You have the pond there AND there is a gazebo.. they really fixed it up nice there.. def go for a walk around the pond there and check it out..

Re: Valley Stream State Park???

I live close to VS and I don't think there are any nice places to take pics at the Park. Definitely go behind the pool where there is a lake. Take a walk and check it out.

Re: Valley Stream State Park???

yes... but ONLY on the side by fletcher avenue/ merrick road (behind the pool) they really built it up. There are alot of weeping willows from Hendrickson avenue- south towards the bridge... IF you enter from Hendrickson ave (south entrance), you'll find that area. The north entrance is nothing but playgrounds and bbq pits. though, it is a woodsy area.

HOWEVER, over by the public library there is a gorgeous stream as well

look at this link

where the arrow is, over by verona avenue, there is a gazebo which is a grea spot for pictures..

(yes, im from VS also)

Re: Valley Stream State Park???

I live right by the Valley Stream library and there is a beautiful park right there with bridges, a gazebo, and streams. It's right by the train station. I have seen numerous brides doing pictures there. FH and I are going to do our reveal moment there since we really want to do pictures before the ceremony. After that we are going to the hall to do more pictures. I would check that place out and where everyone else said behind the pool.
