Ripley Park, located on the west shores of Lake Ripley in Cambridge, Wisconsin, is an 18-acre park that offers a diverse range of activities for visitors. It is privately owned by the Cambridge Foundation and managed by the Cambridge Community Activities Program (CAP). The park is open seasonally from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day, providing a perfect setting for family outings with amenities like two tennis courts, a basketball court, a children's play structure, a 9-hole disc golf course, volleyball courts, and a sandy swimming beach.
