Welcome to the Chesterfield Township

Leisure Services are designed to provide the physical, mental, cultural, and social needs of residents and guests. It is our goal to provide a multitude of activities that are affordable, stimulating and comprehensive, and that enhance the quality of life through recreation, enrichment, fitness, athletics, cultural arts, conservation, preservation, and general open space use. It is our mission to accomplish this in a safe, enjoyable, and aesthetically enriching environment for all ages with outstanding service.

Brandenburg Park Update
Among the largest capital improvement to impact this venue will be the shoreline restoration project. It will be a beacon of pride along Anchor Bay supported by the Township Board and grant agencies! The currently eroding shore will be softened (not for swimming), but rather for the restoration of native habitats. Along our community’s natural coast, species of plants and fish will once again thrive and make their homes in the healthy waters of Lake St. Clair. There will be diverse educational opportunities and lucrative fishing for the sportsmen among us. The building, centrally located within the park, will be gutted to provide more interior space and functionality for party rentals and programs. The sports courts will see a surfacing overhaul in both basketball and tennis areas with logistical changes that will include the addition of pickleball courts.
For the safety of park goers, the northeast quadrant of the park will be primarily inaccessible. Additionally, the main walking paths leading to the pier, building and courts will also see temporary closures. We anticipate the parking lot to remain unaffected; boaters will be able to launch with ease.
Rentals at all parks will be available for August & September 2020. Please call 586-949-0400 ext. 4 to inquire about availability. Accepting of rental applications will begin July 1, 2020. In-person only at 47275 Sugarbush. Monday-Friday, 8AM-4:30PM
Brandenburg Park Booth is now open for the 2020 season. Park entry booth closes September 8, 2020 for the season.
Splash Pad & permanant restrooms will be open July 1, 2020 throughout the end of the season, subject to change on new information regarding COVID-19 and guidelines from the state or township. Splash Pad is open daily from 11AM-7PM, weather permitting.
Please use playgrounds and all park ammenities at your own risk.
