👍👍 This is a great place to watch the parrots come in to roost for the night. We saw over 100 parrots fly in from Mexico. They fly in right before sundown (around 7pm and 730pm.) People often mention park, great, parrots, soccer,

    Great park that has been here decades. The latest addition was the skate park that replaced the basketball courts, there are plenty of ramps and features for skateboarders. There are several leagues for different age groups for soccer, baseball and softball. The park definitely comes alive after 6pm.

    Curbs by the kickball fields are full of leaves. Palm branches fall daily, but they are not picked up. The park is full most afternoons and evenings. The park had been cleaned up. New nets for the tennis court ate still needed. The park is still a good place to walk. However, it needs major maintenance. Piles of debris and brancheshave been by big trash bins for weeks. Curbs are full.of leaves, and trash receptacles are full. The sidewalk to the new walking trail is obstructed by a tree. The branches need to be trimmed or someone is going to get scratched. Walk the dog every day...just wished they had a dog park so you could let the dog loose. Plenty of space to put one up.

    Love this park. I live very close and have been going there for many years now with my family and have had many party's too. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because it doesn't have water fountains and it would be nice of it did but, aside from that it is a great park. Totally recommended.

    Great playground and what makes it even better is that the playground os wheelchair accessable! My son and daughter love this park. The only drawback is that of you go during the day you may have high schoolers skipping classes from Pace HS speaking nothing but profanities.

    My children play soccer at this park and it is super clean very well organized each section has its own theme and it’s just great for family outdoor activities without having to be packed I would totally recommend.

    Is a good place to enjoy with family and friends. And is perfect to do exercise or ride your bike. You know what, if you have a soccer team you can compete with other team because there is foot ball field for that sport. If you have a patineta there's a spot for too,if you like basketball you can find a spot there too. And for yours babies they have a playground for them too. It have everything for each of you, come and enjoy this beautiful park 🏞️. Even for bird lovers, they are slot of trees, and birds loves trees you know. Is good to walks yours doggies, but please bring a bag to pickup he's eses or pupus.

    I love going there and its a nice park but the city needs to update and remolded it. I think our kids and us deserve that

    Really nice city park. It has a gymnasium, baseball fields, soccer fields, lots of trees. I’m a bird photographer and in the evening, hundreds of parrots come there to roost. Quite a sight.

    We come to see the parrots that flock to this location between 5 and 6pm every day. We are usually in the valley at least once a year. They are trying to improve the park. It is a great park for the kids and adults alike. It has a gymnasium, soccer fields, baseball fields, a skateboard park, and great bird watching. It also has a paved walking and biking trail that runs next to the park. The park could use some more cosmetic and structural repairs. If I was rich, I would make a donation to help improve it. I think it could be one of the greatest parks in Texas for everyone to enjoy with the footprint it covers.

    Tennis courts are in very bad shape, nets are horrible and there's no side fence. The rest of the park is in much better condition...

    We came to see the parrots roost for the evening and could not believe how much trash there was around the park. The trash bins were full and there is nowhere for recycling. Lots and lots of water bottles laying everywhere. It is a nice park with a lot of kids playing.

    Such fun. I wish the tennis courts were turned into pickleball courts The kickball is great. Green parrots are awesome. Nice soccer area. Great family place.
