👍 Even though the park is slightly run down, I found it enjoyable. A short walking trail that looks like it branches off into other well beaten paths. I will have to explore those later. The trail goes to the school, and you can just keep on walking. It has some basketball goals, a playground and a... People often mention park, area,

    Even though the park is slightly run down, I found it enjoyable. A short walking trail that looks like it branches off into other well beaten paths. I will have to explore those later. The trail goes to the school, and you can just keep on walking. It has some basketball goals, a playground and a pavilion. I didn't give it 5 stars because I didn't see a rest room.

    It's pretty nice if you don't like your parks refined. Some trails have gravel, others are dirt and some are paved. There aren't too many people on them though so you can do whatever you want on them.

    Not from the area just stopped off the highway to play. Park seems to not have been taken care of in a very VERY long time.

    My child plays football in the field area. There's a playground area outside the fence too. Very calm

    Nice place to watch a soccer game. The field closest to the school is in the best condition.

    Nice little park not too far from the house. It was really great to let my little ones get so emmersed in nature so close to the house. The only downside was the fishing dock had broken loose from the shore part of the way. Other than that they had a blast.

    Nice walking trail, pavilion, basketball courts, playground and open space to play frisbee or catch. It is in need of maintenance, there are no restrooms, and the actual park area is pretty small. We enjoyed our walk on the trail early on a Sunday morning. We were the only people at the park.

    Nice park, lots of facilities, a wooded area to wander and explore....and when the time is just right, mosquitos. More mosquitos than you can imagine. A group of them picked up my youngest and flew off with her. Had to pay a small ransom in blood to get her back.

    Stop here in between jobs to do paperwork. Nice quiet park.

    Excellent south side park

    This park needs some serious attention! Play structure is heavily rusted with many sharp rusted edges.

    It's a very small playground not worth a long drive but fun, of course.

    Good area for family, picnics and playground. It is located behind a school with connecting trails. However, there is no circular trail for hiking. Paved areas are rough and unkempt. Gravel trails into the woods are nice but have dead ends.

    A lot of the trails are overgrown and hard to walk down. There wasn't anyone when we arrived.
