Picnic Shelters

Wheaton Regional Park’s Shorefield Area provides a great space for a picnic!

The Shelters are available to reserve from April 1 – October 31 and are close to all of the exciting attractions, including the adventure playground, Wheaton Miniature Train and Ovid Hazen Wells Carousel, natural and paved trails, and the picturesque Pine Lake.

There are eight picnic areas that may be reserved. Each can accommodate up to 40 people. The park offers grills, tables, and other facilities on a first-come, first-served basis.

Shelters can be reserved through our Park Permits Office or online through ActiveMONTGOMERY.

Restrooms and drinking fountains operate between April and October.
