Paul Fincke· a year agoPlayed too many rounds of disc golf to count. Small course. Short holes. But several are technically challenging. The rough can be punishing if some of your throws... ahem... go off course. The course is well maintained and easy to get around on. Park next to the tennis courts. Hole one will be to the left.
Ken Field· 4 months agoMy grandson plays sports there everything is it doesn't have a bathroom that I know of
Hector Malpartida· 3 months agoWonderful soccer park, many fields, for little or big players...!!
Jeff Coseo· 2 months agoKeeps my dog fed in balls. He finds everything from baseballs to soccer balls.
George Tatge· a year agoThe nature/fitness trail is very nice. Partially shaded trails on mulch, shell, or sand surfaces. Restrooms and water available. Disc golf course, pickle ball, tennis, lawn bowling…. Dog friendly on leash.
