    Scioto Park on Riverside Drive is a Dublin City Park,the one that has the stone memorial of Leatherlips. The park has a n upper and lower parking area. It also has a small amphitheater. Other amenities are restrooms,shelter houses,and an actual pay phone. I don't know if it still works but it's there.The park is a decent sized city park that also has an open grassy area that is on hill. The lower part of the park gives you direct access to the Scioto River.

    Awesome little park with 2 nice shelter houses with many tables. Ample amount of parking available. Indoor restroom facilities available. Nice location right by the Scioto River. Large playground for children. And the Chief Leather lips monument is located here. It surprised me that it's been here since 1990 and this was the first time I've ever stopped to view it. Also an outdoor amphitheater with lawn and stone seating.

    Very nice park! The trees looked so beautiful in the sun. No walking paths, but lots of grass and benches. It's a great place to relax by the river and just observe(: (There's also a large grassy seating area with steps and a stage, so this might be a great place to host an event)

    A beautiful and quiet garden with toilets, children’s toys, shelter, a barbecue place, and seating overlooking the river.

    Went for a concert. Get there early for parking. They do have a restroom. A couple food trucks for concert. We sat in shade by parking area and could still hear the music just fine.

    Nice park right off Riverside drive but away from the main road which avoids noise pollution. There is plenty of space for kids to play, including slides, swings etc. 3 party shelters are available that can be reserved before hand to avoid confusion . BBQ grills are also installed. There are benches near Scioto river to enjoy the view, relax and recharge away from busy life. Parking could be challenging if all 3 grilling areas are booked, but they have provided extra parking near the entrance which can also be utilized but leads to a steep walk downhill and uphill on the way back. There are no lights installed in the shelters, the park closes at sunset and it becomes very dark soon after so I would recommend getting your party finished 30 mins before sunset so there is time to clean up.

    I really like this park. It's very pretty with all the yellow daffodils in spring. They have a decent restroom. There is a nice pavilion and playground. It is near the river, but there is also a small creek nearby that seems to attract the kids' attention pretty well. The creek is not very deep, though, the river is. The road north of the river is very curvy and it is not very wide. It is hard to see if the road is clear when you pull out of the park onto the road. Be cautious.

    This is a nice little park for a picnic has nice play area for kids and you sit down by the water with pavilion with grills and enjoy nature and it's sounds with stream that sit next to the pavilion. Also old tree that kids climb on or great place for photo opt.

    Great place to have a picnic and walk by the water

  • 4/5 Julie L. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a nice little park! The shelter houses (at the bottom of the hill) are really nice, and the playground is great. There are volleyball nets set up (bring your own ball), which I think is cool. The proximity to the river makes a very tranquil setting, which is a wonderful escape from stress. There are actual restrooms (vs. port-a-potties) here, and they are well-maintained and clean--at least on the day I was there. I'm sure that it's really beautiful when there are leaves on the trees.

    I've been going here since I was a kid and it never disappoints. They have so many different kind of roses and the cast iron balcony is the perfect place to view everything. I've know several couples that have taken their engagement photos here and they always turn out beautifully.

  • 5/5 Burleigh W. 9 months ago on Google
    This is a real tree if you zoom in on the picture. I know I was confused myself because how the branches grew so perfect. Perhaps this happened naturally in the wild and mankind had nothing to do with it. Or maybe this is truly art and the meaning of life.

    Had my bridal shower here. The building is easily decorated inside, and being in the park is just beautiful!

  • 4/5 Eileen S. 6 years ago on Google
    For parties of nearly any size, the shelterhouse is more than sufficient to hold you. For a 4th of July breakfast, the crowd spills out into the park!

    Went there for a small party. It was calm environment, small creek running by the one end and surrounded by very nice wooded area. Nice place to cater a party. Plenty of places for kids to play around and also have a volleyball net setups.

    First time being at the park, I fully love it, my aunt told me that this park was a perfect place to get my senior pictures, which I will 100 percent agree with her. The scenery was beautiful. And it was a perfect place to get my pictures taken for my senior year, definitely will come here again

  • 4/5 Heather N. 4 years ago on Google
    It was a really neat little stop. Beautiful area. Well taken care of. There were lots of others who stopped to see it as well. It's worth a few minutes to get out and stretch. Leatherlips!

  • 5/5 Indre R. 4 years ago on Google
    What a lovely park. Very easily accessible right next to main road, all clean and well maintained, washrooms are spotless, water refill station and of course amazing view. So quiet and relaxing, not many people at all, very chill atmosphere and beautiful nature. Loved this place! Would come back any time I’m around the area.

    Lovely park with pavilions, ampitheater and Cheif Leatherlips Monument, great view of the Scioto River. The land is filled with rich history.

  • 5/5 Dave223 3 years ago on Google
    This park is a very nice place to take a lunch and sit near the river in a shelter. There is usually a nice breeze even on the hottest days. The park is very relaxing and often there are ducks floating on the water.

  • 4/5 Grant B. 3 years ago on Google
    Scioto Park is a nice little quiet place for a quick little getaway for those who like the outdoors. The major draw of the park is the Chief Leatherlips Monument. The Chief is a major part of local history for his ability to negotiate with the white settlers moving into the area. The nickname "Leatherlips" came from the settlers because he was known to always keep his word. Ironically, the statue has no lips at all. You can actually climb to the top of the statue and look out over the Scioto River. It's a great photo opp. BONUS! The statue is completely wheelchair accessible. There's a huge open field for those who want to play catch, or a little touch football. I've seen people training their dogs there and having great fun. During the winter it's a great sledding hill for the kids and those who are kids at heart. There are plenty of picnic tables and a couple of large pavilions for gatherings. Speaking of large pavilions, this park has amphitheater, which is occasionally used for performances by local artists during the summer. For those who like boating, canoeing, or kayaking there's easy access to the Scioto River, but the current can be strong. I advise anyone in a kayak or canoe to start out going up stream until you can't paddle anymore, then turn around and let the current take you back to your starting point.

    Went sledding with daughter and grandson. Sciotio park has setup a sledding area. So much fun.

  • 5/5 jennifer a. 3 years ago on Google
    As a photographer I'm always looking for new spots for sessions. I love Scioto Park because you can get gorgeous photos with the river in the background and it's a much less popular spot and less crowded. There's tons of trees and shade and also a playground for kids.

  • 3/5 Loren S. 3 years ago on Google
    Great for sledding, not so much for walking around. Cool face statue. It was worth a visit once, but a bit out of my way for another, unless I feel like sledding

  • 5/5 Jana F. 3 years ago on Google

  • 2/5 Julio C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's a bit nice. Except that my first visit was not as I expected. They stole all my work tools and there is nothing to have proof of any theft like cameras. (Original) Es un poco agradable .Solo que mi primera visita no fue como yo esperaba.me robaron toda mi herramienta de trabajo y no hay nada para tener pruebas de algun robo como camaras.
