    It's more than a play ground. It has a sidewalk that makes a circle around the pond. I've been going here for years. The pond usually isn't this low.

    This is one of my favorite neighborhood parks to take my puppy in training. It's a very well kept up park with a playground and lots of natural beauty along the walking trail. There's a pond with some resident ducks as well as several mallards and a few drakes hanging out too. She likes ducks. Lol...

    Solid park. Has a small area for kiddos 2-5, and a larger for 5-12. Good walking trail with a small pond. Great for the kiddos to stretch the legs.

    My son had fun but it wasn't the cleanest and found several pieces of broken glass and plastic in the bark around the edges of the playground. Im sure it looks better when it hasn't been so hot nothing can survive. Seems like a great little trail to walk dogs very dog friendly everyone was out walking their pups there

    We rented a room in the The Cliff Nelson Recreation Center (CNRC) for my dad's 75th birthday. Mickey, the staff member on duty was amazing and extremely accommodating. We also loved that the room we rented was attached to a spacious kitchen that made heating and serving the food easy! Highly recommended.

    Fantastic park, the building has bathrooms and there's a great playground for the kids and a walking trail in the back. There's also a tennis court, definitely recommend this great park.

    My wife and I decided to end the day with a walk around the Cliff Nelson walking track. It was a beautiful evening just before sundown. There were a few kids in the playground and older kids tossing a Frisbee. The ducks were exitting the pond to wherever they go at night. The park was well maintained. My wife and I enjoyed a brisk walk around the one third of a mile walkway across the bridge, around the pond, past the trees, and along side the playground. Very pleasant.

    Park is always clean, staff are nice. Coyotes aren't too bad only snow up once in a blue moon
