Great park, very clean and with the maintenance ok! Big parking lot as well.
Nice park for sitting and eating lunch on a spring day. Very clean shelter area and bathrooms. Quite a nice place for a break from work.
I wished I could give it 4 or 5 stars, but there a few pieces that have broken plastic (see pics), making them unusable. The lack of shade over the play structures makes the sides almost impossible to use during sunny days (most are metal). There are 2 different play areas, one good for tots, and one good for school aged kids. They are across the park from each other, so not convenient if you have different ages in the group. There is a soccer field a and a sand volleyball court. Lots of green space with a walking trail by the woods and creek. I don’t think this will be on our list of favs
An easy to find, large family friendly park located right on a busy well travelled road. Seems so run of the mill. But was I wrong. What I thought was a large plain green space with a playground reveals beautiful forested trails, accessed by a wooden bridge that crosses a stream. The trail is smooth and we’ll paved, suitable for rollerblading, as well as walking and biking! Go discover and enjoy.
Great park. Well kept, from the shaded trails to the playground. Love that it has a volleyball court. The grass is well kept up with which makes the field look gorgeous. Pictures don’t do justice! Clean pavilion, garbage cans available throughout the park. Area with certain trees along with a butterfly garden. Perfect for the whole family! Highly recommend it!
