Reviews
What a great park in a great location. We had a blast and it was special being the only ones there.
Lovely neighborhood tranquil park, two chairs and a park bench. Lawn and waterside.
Nice small street end park Annapolis style. Dinghy dock, some Adirondack chairs, trash can and dog waste bags.
Viewing paddle boats and sailboats, the joy here is beyond description! Lovely in all seasons and peaceful exceeding words. Here you just sit and breathe…
Small street end park, typical of those in Annapolis. There are two benches, several adirondack chairs, and a small seawall with a ladder down to the water. It is mostly grass, surrounded by bushy greenery. There is adequate shade, but down by the water it is somewhat lacking. The view is nice, but is obstructed on the left by a large, unappealing building over the water.
There is a decent chunk of unused street leading to the park; it would be nice to see this park expanded in the future using that space, or at least having it be designated as parking specifically for the street-end park.
