Vanessa Pecoraro· 7 months agoThis park used to be our favorite but they removed most of if and left only the good walking/biking sidewalk. Still like to enjoy family time there but we do miss having some more entertainment as we used to, when they had the playground w/slides.
DK1981· 2 years agoGreat little neighborhood park with a paved trail that winds through many trees. Nice playground for the kids under big oak trees with benches and restrooms nearby. Very popular with dogs and the dog parents. Separate huge areas for large & small dogs including a dog wash station and covered seating. 2 nice basketball courts and plenty of parking.
Jay· 7 months agoVery well kept. Both a small and big dog area. Everyone at the park was friendly and mindful of their dogs. Canopy set up over the benches helps reduce direct sunlight.
Reviews By Nitra· 4 years agoI think the location is awesome! I love the dog park areas. There’s a large and small dog gated sections. My dogs had a blast! Got there at 4 and so did many other people so my dogs were so happy! Everyone seemed to clean up after their dogs, THANK YOU to everyone for doing so. There are plenty of trees for shade and a shade area with benches for the humans. There are a lot of water bowls as well along with the water fountains. Clean up bags are available there, please use them to clean up after your dog! Over all fun park and I will return and would recommend.
Aditya belhe· 7 years agoThe park is good and averagely maintained. There is a separate enclosed dog park which effectively separates main park and dog park. There is only 1 picnic shed with washrooms nearby. There are benches all over the park. The play area is covered with thick vegetation hence is always cool and shady. Even during summer afternoons the play area is covered with shadow. There are basketball courts and a trail walk way. However I could not see a water fountain. I downside I noticed there were no lights in the park making it difficult in the evening when sunsets early during winters. overall then park is amazing and kids would love the play area!!
