Reviews
The park renovation is impressive which reopened in May 2025! I remember this park was so dated and not as inviting. But with all the new additions, resurfacing, and more, I’m sure more people will be excited to use this park. I’ve visited here a few times already to walk the track and get in a workout in the outdoor fitness area.
There’s plenty to offer at this local park. Baseball/softball fields, batting cages, eight pickleball courts, one volleyball court, one basketball court, playgrounds for older and younger kids, a marked walking/jogging track around the park that is approximately 1/2 mile for one lap.
There’s plenty of parking as well as EV charging spots. I noticed that there only few benches or seating areas available for resting or relaxing. There are also shaded bleachers next to the pickleball courts. There are also some covered picnic tables.
Looking forward to visiting this park more!

This park looks recently renovated and is so nice. Huge playground areas and tables, baseball field, pickleball courts, basketball court, workout area and running track around the perimeter thati believe is 1/4 mile full circle. Looks like there’s even batting cages – not sure how to access it. Even the lights are censored on the walking/running track and goes super bright as you walk. I started coming here a lot now because its so nice and people are super friendly. Very good vibes and my new favourite place to take my dog on walks. Lots of parking along the perimeter. Never had an issue with parking.

With the 8 new pickleball courts, it’s definitely not beginner-friendly. It’s crowded all the time—morning, night, even weekdays. When you finally get a turn after waiting in line, some players go all out just to get you off the court so they can play with their friends again. I even ran into two people who claimed to be “advanced” and kept the whole court to themselves while plenty of others were waiting. We waited 30 minutes just to play a single 4-minute game. I wanted to get into pickleball, but this experience is starting to make the sport feel more toxic than fun.
This is a really nice, well-maintained facility. It’s a great place for large or small parties. There’s a pavilion with picnic table seating for about 100 adults and additional smaller pavilions nearby. The grills and eating areas are clean. The baseball diamond look brand new.

8 brand new pickleball courts with bright LED lights at night. Courts are free to use and have individual paddle holders for cue to each court. Covered bleachers available on west side. Middle area courts lack enough sitting area for cue waiting and inhibit playing due to cue standing. There’s plenty of parking adjacent courts. Echargers available next to courts. May 2025 was Grand Opening for entire park.
