Danielle Reed· 5 years agoThis is a quant little park that has about six basketball hoops at the large court and two racket ball courts (I believe, not 100%). For the young ones the playground has two slides, multiple ladders for climbing, a rock wall for the monkeys, two baby swings separate from the two bigger swings, and the entire playground is surrounded by a paved walk way with periodical bench and trashcan sitting areas. I would recommend taking your kids to this park if you don't want the bigger crowds.
Katrina Nethery· 2 months agoPark (the playground only) is apparently current closed for construction
Robert· 2 months agoSmall,clean... but serves my needs as a close, osmall neighborhood park.
Kiri Lutes· 5 years agoLots of fun. Great for children. Large basket ball court, two big kid swings and two little kid swings. Three slides, several different climbing things. Two wall ball courts. Plenty of shade, and a large bike locking place. A large parking lot, and several benches. There is a fence separating the playground from the apartments and pond, and there is lots of grass to run in. Lots of trees to climb. A cement trail around the playground. The only problem is that there is no bathroom, and the grass gets really boggy after it rains.
Michael Robinson· 7 years agoA genuinely pleasant neighborhood park! Small but very well kept and designed. A great place for both adults and children to relax and enjoy themselves. It has a very nice playground for children and a good basketball court. The only negative thing I have to say is parking is very limited. Overall, I would highly recommend this park!
