With 500 acres of public parklands and three beautiful lakes, Muskego has plenty to keep the outdoor enthusiasts and visitors interested.

There are 21 lake accesses to choose from, so finding a place to relax by the lake won't be a problem. Little Muskego is home to the city’s public beach, Idle Isle Park, which features a sandy public beach, boat launches, and a handicap-accessible fishing pier. For entertainment on the water, the Water Bugs Water Ski Show is held every Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. from Memorial Day to Labor Day at Idle Isle Park. Big Muskego Lake, with 2,260 acres of cattail marsh, makes for great hunting and fishing, as well as beauty. Lake Denoon covers 162 acres, is situated in the southwest of the city, and is also partially-located in the town of Norway.
There are also 14 beautiful parks in Muskego, including playground equipment and open spaces in the neighborhood parks. In the larger parks, you can also find picnic shelters, tennis courts, basketball courts, baseball/softball fields, soccer fields, skateboard parks, boardwalks, and meeting room areas. The parks encompass over 260 acres of natural space within Muskego. Muskego also boasts over 30 miles of recreation trails, which link the city together with a system of safe and functional off-street recreation trails.
