    Small park in the ATL (maybe running 5 blocks) and the parking is good. Bench seating scattered around but no picnic tables or grills. Dotted with shady areas to relax on the greens. The location appears to be in a safe area within residential neighborhood.

    Quaint, quiet park, perfect for a Saturday afternoon away from the hustle and bustle. Abundant parking, 2 volleyball nets, and some unique playground 'attractions' for lack of a better word all are instrumental in making this park an enjoyable experience. Theres also a decent sized field.

    Very cute park. Lots of different green "rooms"/sections. You don't have to mix with a ton of people. You can choose a section to sit and enjoy or have a family outing and it will feel like you're in your own personal park. Playground is great, clean and enough play structures to banish boredom. There's also a sand area which was hosting a small volleyball match when I visited.

    The local neighborhood does a great job at keeping on top of the maintenance here. There is a kid's playground and sand volleyball courts. It's just up the street from Piedmont Park and across from Inman Middle School.

    The park is cute, I love that it has a sand area in which you can play volleyball and kids can play in it and make sand castles, I take my siblings there every single week for about 5 year straight and there has never been a problem
