Dan Shapiro· a month agoThe parking is quite shaded, which is its only real benefit over Urfer Park just down the road. There is no playground equipment for kids over the age of 3. My four-year-old gets bored quickly here. The benches are wobbly and uncomfortable. The playground equipment is all probably 30+ years old. It’s a very dated looking park. It is a good park for little toddlers, and for very hot days without clouds.
Alex Edwards· 7 years agoThis is a great park with a ton of amenities and all a family could ask for from a park. They have basketball and tennis courts, good playground that is fenced in and shady, pavilions, indoor restrooms, great parking, and a ton of open field. The only reason I gave it a 4 star is if you are hosting a birthday party you will have to lug all of your items about 100-200 yards to the pavilion as the staff WILL NOT unlock the gate for unloading. I been here for several times for parties and its a comment made by every parent at every party every time. Hopefully they will change this someday.
JustSomeDood· 2 months agoAVOID! It is so run-down now that there are literally homeless people under the overpass by the basketball court. Not kidding, they are there right now on 5/13/26. There has been non-stop graffiti there for months, too. I guess the tennis/pickleball court side is a little better, but that won't last if nothing is done about the other side. I would NOT let my children go there!
Meghan Vish· a year agoLOVE this park! Great park for kids to play on surrounded by beautiful trees and nature!!!
Brad Swineheart· 6 months agoWonderful facility with invaluable staff. Betty is amazing! Very pleasant to work with and shows she really cares about her park the programs they hold.
