Iuka Park

City park

😐 This was a little bit of a disappointment for me. I was expecting a lot more park, but it was a little park (one wide grassy area and a narrow trail through some forest area). The rest was a cobblestone street surrounded by trees and brush. It looked like many of paths led up to houses, and some are... People often mention park, walk, small, area, nice, Great, campus, quiet, Nice,

    This was a little bit of a disappointment for me. I was expecting a lot more park, but it was a little park (one wide grassy area and a narrow trail through some forest area). The rest was a cobblestone street surrounded by trees and brush. It looked like many of paths led up to houses, and some areas were fenced off. It would be a nice place to walk your dog if you live close by, but it wasn't worth it to me to drive and hang out there. It was a small walk in the middle of the city, but that's it.

    Small park bordered by N 4th & Summit. Short mulched trail through wooded area. Has volleyball net and benches. We walked on the one-way cobblestone streets on the north and south side of Iuka Park - very shaded.

    Great little park, with a nice trail. Sometimes the homeless sleep under the bridge. I will often leave a sack lunch for them, as they go around campus and pick up the beer cans.

    Hidden right in the middle of it all. I've walked past it so many times and never knew it even existed. Super spectacular views, and a bridge to hide under if it should start raining. And it did...

  • 4/5 Jake R. 7 years ago on Google
    Not much to be said, not much more than a brick street shadowed by trees

  • 5/5 Tony L. 2 years ago on Google
    This is such a cute little green space right by campus! It is so quiet here, and it is the perfect place to take a stroll to clear your head or to get some quick exercise. There is a spacious field area where you can play sports or just hang out. I like that there are some little trails the take you between the trees of the park. There are plenty of benches to take a rest. The stone bridges are very pretty to look at. I would recommend that you come here on a nice, breezy day during the fall.

    One of my favorite places in the area to relax. Just a tiny piece of heaven in the middle of it all! Dogs and their people seem happy here.

    I love this park. It’s where my boyfriend said he wants to marry me and it will always hold that special memory.

  • 4/5 Todd E. 8 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Deniece Gans T. 10 months ago on Google
    I love this little patch of nature. People are friendly, but keep to themselves. I can even walk my cat down here.

  • 5/5 Alyssa D. 2 years ago on Google
    Cute little park.....never knew it was there!

  • 5/5 Dustin E. 3 years ago on Google
    One my favorite short walks in the city. Quiet and shady. Brick roads run through.

    If you're looking for a park that has decent parking, restrooms, playground equipment, and open spaces then Iuka Park is not what you're looking for. If you're looking for an interesting, scenic place to check out and can deal with being close to Ohio State campus then you would probably enjoy a visit to Iuka Park.

    This is a very nice park near OSU North campus. It is well shaded and has many picnic spots, making it a comfortable place to explore. It is also very small. From an accessibility standpoint, one will notice that there is not much parking nearby. The path is cobblestone and, naturally, there are leaves and debris on the ground- so be aware of this. The shade from the trees provides a comfortable reprieve from the sun. I would say that Iuka Park is one of the more accessible parks around, and I would recommend it to people who want to spend time in nature but have accessibility needs.

    Force filled park far far away

  • 4/5 Trevor S. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice park, extremely rude and creepy man states at park goers because he treats the park as his front yard. My classmates and I ran into him a few times. Threatens to call the police if you walk off path, climb trees, hammock. In public. Also plants Hella invasives in the park

    It's a cute park but I only go for the pokestop

  • 4/5 Jake S. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a cute, surprisingly quiet park. It is surrounded by a quaint brick road. A large portion features ohio flora and there is a small open green space perfect for picnics or dogs.

  • 3/5 Adam R. 4 years ago on Google
    It's small but a nice meet up spot just to spend time or have a small picinic. It's not too far from my house and it's also a Pokemon gym so that's a plus.

    Watch out for the old man at the top of the park, he sucks and will yell at you for anything

  • 5/5 Samantha K. 5 years ago on Google
    So cute! I love the bridges & the brick walk. The park itself is just a small strip of of grass with some benches but it has a ton of greenery in it regardless.
