One of our favorites with great swings and slides for little and big kids. Easy parking unless there is a big event going on… nice neighborhood park.

Just ok. No shade so the playground equip was all hot. Some ppl were hosting a 2 yr old bday party so all the picnic tables were occupied. There is no running water and no bathrooms. The area that I guess is supposed to be grass is overgrown in weeds, but the tennis court is in good condition. Single basketball hoop faces east, so it’s good for playing in the evenings.

It has a nice picnic area and playgrounds plus tennis and basketball courts but no bathrooms, why?! How does this make sense? Also some dog owners do not pick up after their dogs- disgraceful, especially as there are kids playing there.

Nicely kept up with good shaded tables. The playground equipment is sparse but at least it’s fairly new. The tennis court has a good surface and net but no windscreens. Overall I would recommend this park, but there are better ones in the area.
