Cool place, nice park for young kids to play at. Alot of nature and scenery to explore on the walking trail which goes around the whole park. Baseball games are a good time when they are playing. Can also fish in half moon pond but I wouldn't recommend eating or keeping anything you catch. That being said it's a nice pond with a beach at one end to hangout at in the warm weather. Ice skating in the winter. The park also features a football field home to local adult teams and high schools that play at different time throughout the football season. The Paul Bunyan logging museum is a cool place to check out if you're into history, also has an old schoolhouse and other historic items from around the area that are interesting to see and read about. Lastly there is the train and railroad tracks with a couple old buildings. The tracks give a decent tour when the train is running. With all that available and plenty of spots in the park to have a gathering of any size the park is one of the cities main sites of recreation and events. It's not a bad idea to plan a trip here around one of the sporting events or other events/festivals and gatherings that take place here during the year. It's also a great spot to go for a walk and not be bothered if you're more of a private person as well.

Definitely among my top 3 favorite city parks that I've ever been to. While the open areas and kids' playground section are quite nice, what I like most about Carson Park is that there's also a ton of lakeside pathways and patches of woods to explore! And let's not forget about all of the wildlife as well!
Carson Park is a great place to let kids expend energy and/or take walk. Just beautiful in the fall!
Went on Memorial Day weekend and it was busier than usual according to Google, but there were still parking spaces available. The bathroom was fine. Running water (not pit toilets). A short walk by the water under the cool pines was just what I needed in the middle of a busy day.
Went kayaking on Half Moon Lake at Carson Park. Hard to believe you are in the middle of Eau Claire. Very peaceful place to go if you just want to leisurely paddle around for a couple hours. I don't fish, but it seems to be a popular spot for it.
