Maybe 5 minutes driving time to colgony beach entrance. But there are several parks a little past park lane that you can go through and park for beach access thats not as crowded I would highly recommend.
Can't add any more to that other than there are Shuttle s that will carry you to the beach. It's an especially nice service if you have kids and/or equipment ( beach chairs, umbrella, towels, sunscreen, etc.).
Jasmine gave you a great answer. Enjoy.
Would agree with Jasmine
