Nice park with lots of space to play basketball, toss a football or play on the newly installed playground. In regards to the latter has two playgrounds one for ages 2-5 and one for 4 and up.
Great park, but very noisy from the car on 495 just past the park wall. Overall, it is a very pretty park with lots of grass, trees, paved walkways, children’s play structures, water fountain, and basketball courts.
Beautiful little haven and sanctuary in the area! Park has great sun spots and is nice and quiet
Playground equipment is 🔥. No restrooms. Large green space for walking pets. Nice basketball courts. No parking on Forest Glen Rd. There is a parking lot next to the basketball courts but not sure which side street you take to get to it.
It is a nice small park with playground and a basketball court
