    A lovely bushy park for a rambling walk. Not far from main roads, but it’s a real patch of nature. Lots of rainbow lorikeets.

    Lovely and bushy walk through nature. Great to go down the series of connected parks as well to extend the walking circuit but everything is well maintained here and beautiful.

    As I was raised only half a mile from this park, with Gardiner's Creek flowing through it, it tugs at my heartstrings whenever I visit. You can enter either from the bottom of Gardenia Street, or Main Street. There is an abundance of native flora, with safe paths created here and there-- and I could hear the happy cries of wattlebirds and magpies all around. And they say that the ringing of bell birds can be heard, if you come on a lucky day... There is also a small children's playground on the South side in a clearing, I believe.

    A small but picturesque playground. The environment is beautiful - springtime includes many native birds and the small loop walk is easy and inviting.

    Had good fun at this small little park. There’s a nice short trail that you can take with small kids.

    Has a great playground and is a great place to walk your dog or play with kids. Has space for exploring and bits good for kicking a ball around.

    A relaxing and tranquil break from the bustle of suburbia, only gripe is that certain dog owners disobey the on-the-leash guidelines. Personally witnessed a small child get mildly nipped by an eager poodle running amok. Needless to say the owner was rightfully scolded.

    A nice little walking circuit with heaps of greenery and a playground for the kids. Not great if you are after a long walk, but it does connect to a lo ger walking trail across the road.

    Well what a little piece of Paradise this small children's Park is. I went there with my grandchildren recently as their Mother has done so many times. Oh we were near the Gum trees and little birds , it was beautiful. There are a few swings , one swing for Special Needs children and just a couple of other items. Just enough for a happy play for the children and myself. Another Adult arrived with a small child and we're happily enjoying the facilities and surrounds. Just a delightful experience.

    A great little Park, some bench and a law mowed, perfect if you want to read. There are also very funny games for children.
