We love Elizabeth Park. Such a great place to go for a picnic whether it is two of you stopping for a picnic lunch ( My husband and I like to stop at Subway and get a sub and eat it looking at the Detroit River ) or a whole group ( Have had picnics there with groups of 10, 20 and 100. Introduced my friends from Northville to the park last summer. They couldn't believe how beautiful it was.
