Nice park for kids to play. New and updated equipment. Beautiful view of the pond.
Local park, pretty well maintained, though the sidewalks desperately need to be repaired. Right next to West Orange high school, makes it convenient with ample parking. Small recreation center attached that can be rented for events and parties.
Beautiful little park with a lake, lots of wildlife, a path that almost reaches around the lake, and a playground ideal for 3-10 year olds!
Not as beautiful as the pictures other people showed before.
The pond is stinky and no full walkway to go around the lake. Only half of it, the other half is occupied by private property.
It cannot count as a park, too small, and half of the area was owned by private property.
Only because it is next to a school, the playground is popular for kids.
My review is only about the pond. I stopped here briefly and enjoyed the serenity of the water. The pond is shallow with a consistent depth of around 2.5 ft and a hard floor.
The grounds appear very well maintained and almost entirely free of goose poop, which is always nice. There is also a trail loop around the pond which provides a quaint nature walk. In all, a nice experience.
