Very nice little park. Not for hiking or dog walking. Five minutes to walk around the ground. More for a quiet relaxation, meditation and or conversation. Sitting next to the canal, watching the rapids, reflections of trees, and the colored cloud at sun set makes a well worthy visit.
Ended up meeting a good friend after months of social distancing here. We chose it so we stay outdoor. There are a few benches to sit and chat. It is very pretty to watch the small water fall and cars that pass by once in a while. We enjoyed it as the wethere was gorgeous. Unfortunately’ the place has no bathrooms, which was a pain. Wish they would install one! Recommend if you need a quiet place to sit down and just enjoy the moment.
This park was refreshed over the last few years. It’s located right on the Rockaway River and is a popular location for pulling out canoes before the falls. There is a decent size parking lot, a picnic table, and a small circular seating area for programs. Well maintained and nicely manicured, you should stop by and enjoy.
Small but beautiful park with nice falls very peaceful
