Reviews
We had a wonderful time at Butler park. The kids enjoyed the slide & swing. Our favorite was the clear pond that was there. We could literally see the fishes swimming in the water. There was a local family that was fishing & they were so welcoming & inviting. We all enjoyed the visit to this park.
It’s always great to have a place where me and my kids could hang out and play.
Sad park. Bathrooms were locked on a Saturday 3 pm. Hardly any kids. Good amount of trees with shade/ sun.
This is a great park for outdoorsy people, there are a lot of trees. I did get hit by a bug on a tree I walked under. There isn’t really a way to not walk under trees. They have bathrooms, basketball court, tennis court, water fountain, and picnic tables. There is also like beach sand in some areas.
This park is difficult to review because it has so much potential.
It is really a peaceful place even though it is right by the road. There is a bathroom, drinking fountains, tennis/basketball court and a paved walking trail. It actually is a very nice park.
The catch is there is/was garbage everywhere, and the picnic tables seem to be used as campouts for people who are struggling rather than for their intended purposes. Basically, I wouldn’t recommend being here once it starts getting dark, and I was frankly too scared to go into the bathrooms to see what they looked like.
Having said that, a church activity group was cleaning up all the garbage they could find and putting out really cute rocks they painted while I was there, so I have hope that is can be a good place.
