Reviews
Never knew this park was here. Close by and very nice. Also a skate park. Covered picnic tables, baseball field. Only a port a pottie
Our county park. It was built around 1980 is about to get a major renovation which will mean some long wanted improvements. Best of all they will preserve most of the open field!
The park has room for improvements (3 stars) but the people that make up the community, the people I am fortunate enough to call neighbors, they get 5 stars! As far as the park goes there is a play area for little kids and bigger kids, there is a skate park, a fenced in dog park, basketball court and tennis court and a covered picnic area. They have an old rundown baseball diamond with lots of pokey weeds but it makes for a great open space for flying a kite or launching a rocket. There is no flushing toilets though. Only a porta potty. The installation of a bathroom and some weed control/landscaping could do this park a world of good. Maybe a few shade trees planted close to the benches and kids play area too. A track around the boarder wouldn’t hurt either.
The park has room for improvements but the people that fill the park are priceless. You will always be greeted by friendly faces.
Dog park is ok. Pretty typical along with the standard amount of uncleaned dog waste and holes. If only we could figure out a way for lazy people to pick up after their dogs 🤔
Skate park is decent for the area since down the road at the sunshine park is a complete zoo. Would be nice if this park had some lights. There are only 5 ramps total in the whole park. The pyramid in the middle is a little difficult to skate with how it was placed. But all in all this park is at least worth it to escape the children that are never ending at the other parks
