    Parking is only a problem on Sundays. Other than that, it's a cool place to go for a walk, jog etc.

    Absolutely trashy everywhere. The view is good, people don't seem to care to liter. Only 2 stars for view. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone. While I was present, it appears attempt to clean up but overwhelmed by so much trash left behind.

    Our lil league football team practice at this park, it could be clean way more often, but I do understand that the public should take the time to clean up after themselves when hanging out. It has a playground area for the kids, and portable restroom, soccer field and field for football or baseball... its cool

  • 5/5 Roshanda H. 7 months ago on Google
    I love the park but this last time I decided to get out and eat on the bench. When I say the geese were out and surrounded me to the point their beaks were touching my behind. I was a little scared because I've never seen them so this before. I began to throw my fries down to get them to back off, by the time I got to my car I had three fries left, thank God I made it to my cat or I wouldn't have had any chicken left .........Beware they are persistent

  • 3/5 Yem R. 1 year ago on Google
    Just a barren grass field with trash on the ground and police presence. Needs more nature. Could maybe make a decent place to picnic, but not much else.

  • 5/5 Future A. 1 year ago on Google

    If you are older people please come to this part it is nice only and people come down here to enjoy yourself until the police make it known that they are in charge this is a part not a police department you cannot even enjoy yourself down here with the police coming down there asking multiple questions young people stay away from here this is not what you come to shoot up where people come to enjoy they sell grandparents or either the grandkids so they can enjoy yourself cuz this is one of the only place they got to go

    If your a South Dallion, or you frequent the Sunny South on the regular, then you already know what it is... 😎 For those of you not familiar with the South, and looking for a place to take ya lil 1's... This ain't ideal, maybe during the weekdays.. yes, but a definite no on weekends 💯
