    Access off the main road could be a problem on a busy day. Parking left a lot to be desired. However, for the players the facilities were good. Lots of families with dogs gave it a great atmosphere.

    Attending the local tennis courts to watch my older daughter play... This park is right next door... My youngest son loves it here! There is so much equipment for them to play on and again, adjacent to a large oval, perfect to kick the footy or soccer ball. The larger section of the play equipment has three slides (one you can race your friends on!) a wobbly bridge, rock climbing wall with ropes  and a fireman pole. The smaller section of the park (great for toddlers) has easy access stairs, a wobbly bridge, two small slides and crawl through tunnel. There is also a bouncing dragon and bumble bee, a climb on tractor, monkey bars, stepping swings and wizzy dizzies. Four swings (two for toddlers and two for older kids) are located opposite the entrance to the park, there is also lots of shade, easy parking, two benches (perhaps bring a rug on a busy day) and toilet facilities.

    Great tree-lined walks with areas to run socialised safe dogs ...of all sizes off- lead. If people know their dogs are not great with others they seem to keep them tethered. Have to watch for snakes in Summer though... Great bush tracks down to Sweet Water Creek and footbridge across to residential area of Mt Eliza on South side of Humphries Rd. Love this place😊

    A surprising gem of a park, if you are looking for somewhere to walk your dog. Friendly fellow dog walkers.

    Gorgeous enormous park, leash free throughout all year. Great view of the Bay beaches edge and across to the Dandenongs can be seen on clear days from the western lawn slope. Many marvellous old trees in that section especially, for shade on warm days. Two car park areas on Overport Rd.
