Reviews
Very well kept and entertaining park for the whole family. In a quiet peaceful area with a store in walking distance for those long summer park stays.
This is a great small park. Nothing was broken. Theres a basketball court connected to the park. No bathrooms by what I saw. It’s great for my toddlers because there hasnt been teens there destroying the place like at fulton park. Also has a sprinkler for the kids. Overall great place for the kids.
Its starting to become a dump like the rest of waterbury!!! Kids smoking weed on the play scape, in the gazebo. It’s a place for kids and family to enjoy, not a place to smoke and put other children at risk. Instead of taking the time to ruin young children lifes, why don’t you take that time and figure who your dad is 🤷🏽♂️
Its a small and quiet park. Not many kids or families were there so we had it to ourselves. My girls had fun playing in sprinkler,on swings and playscape.
