    Truly a wonderful park. A bit small, but it's well maintained. They have a large pond and keep it clean of all trash. Unfortunately, the ducks and geese lay poop everywhere. It's got a grassy area to sit, a big playground for kids, a small music amphitheater, walking areas, a water fountain, an art exhibit museum, and more. They host music events in the summer almost every day. Great park in the heart of Huntington, close to the village. It's a great place to walk your dog around the area, have a nice picnic for a few friends, bring the kids to play at the playground, take some photos, or just relax. Plenty of geese, ducks, turtles, and birds to watch or take photos of.

    This is really a well maintained park in Huntington. Large pond and the paved pathway around the pond is amazing for jogging. The area is spacious and so clean. There is a big playground for the kids. Benches are around the pond and that area is so scenic. It’s like a picture. We went there on September and I heard that the park is beautiful in every season. Definitely going back in winter too. Adding more: Beautiful tulips in end of April and beginning of May. Wonderful!!

    Nice walking paths around the stage area, and ponds. There's a playground for the kids, and an art museum as well. Free off street parking also. Lots of ducks and geese, careful where you walk, with the mess they all make-

    It’s so pretty but there are so many bugs (you can actually see them in the pictures) we are visiting in spring so it is the season but the pools of water make it worse. The bridge is uncrossable and actually a bird sanctuary which is quite nice. Be safe the geese.

    Wow! What a beautiful park. Amazing. This is a pack with a lake in the middle where people can stroll along the pavement while watching the swans and geese swim in the water. Attracts all kinds of people such as people who are there to take a walk, runners, mothers with babies, and so forth. There is a well finished playground, a sandpit where children can play, bathrooms, a performance area and stage, a museum, little nooks leading to various parts of the park, tons of benches and lots and lots of grass. There are fountains throughout the park. This park is so beautiful. Also, plenty of free parking. Watch out for the geese (and poop)!

    Such a gorgeous park. The area is spacious and clean. The paths around the park and the lake are scenic and are great places for taking photos. The Huntington Arts Council is also hosting free concerts/shows almost every night through the summer at the Chapin Rainbow Stage in the park.

    Love walking at the park. The dogs love this place and the children do as well. It's a beautiful park and looks great all through the seasons.

    My husband and I love this park! It feels like a mini Central Park—except I think it’s prettier than the water at Central Park.
