Such a great addition to our community. Turf throughout is nice, but I wonder how hot it will be to play on in the summer. It also has a huge pavilion with maybe 15 tables and some shaded benches. I like the fence around it and the walking trail that surrounds the park. I can walk around while keeping an eye on my kids. The zip line is a big hit as well. My only complaint is that there is no restroom!!! And the park is 5 miles from any type of commercial building with a restroom. Holding out hope they will come to their senses and add one in the next phase of the park build.

Just wonderful got a chance to see a Bison cousin to Buffalo that was neat. Took plenty pics of 1800s town and different shops and buildings during that era would recommend to other tourist. Had a chance to ring school bell. I treated myself as a gift to me recent college graduate.

I love the buildings and the buffalo. Great back drops with buildings for family pics. Very nice fence with fall leaves in the back ground. One of our favorite Easter egg hunting places to go not to mention the fun weekend activities they do once and awhile.

Outstanding recreational activities. There's a golf course, playground areas, hiking/biking trails, and a museum. I went for trails, and stayed for approximately four hours. I enjoyed it thoroughly. It's also dog friendly.

A beautiful place to go walking. Many trails. Open pavement trails and woodland trails. Marked very well. Also had a living museum in the park which was really cool as well. Loved this park.

Nice old lady living there in the woods in an old cottage asked me if I wanted to come in for candy and cookies but I told her I was laying off added sugar. Walked a bit further and stumbled upon The Village from that M. Night Shyamalan movie. Saw some bison. Pretty typical walk in the park.

We absolutely love this playground. My one complaint is the bathroom situation. I thought by now they would have an actual bathroom facility. Yesterday the one Johnny on the spot they have was COVERED in pee. It was absolute disgusting. There was pee all over the floor, toilet seat, next to the seat, and even the door. Playgrounds are meant for children, most of which can't hold their bladders long. There definitely needs to be a better restroom situation.

This is an awesome playground area for children up to 12. Toddlers can roam on a safe soft field and there are more swings than most places. Plenty of climbing apparatus for all the kids in the family. Zip line is fantastic. My 3 grandsons love this place. Can get crowded at times on weekends. Very clean and well kept. Down side only portable potties available right now. Has potential for adding restrooms. (hint,hint)

This review is more for the walking and biking trail that runs through Hodge Park. Had a great ride through there on my bike today! Park is maintained quite well, every person I encountered was friendly, very rare these days. Please be mindful that families and children use the trail as well, watch your speed and watch blind corners. I will ride this trail again, I am very happy I was told about this place!

On a weekday this place is calm and fun. On the weekend it is crazy and fun. My 5yo loves the slide area. My only issue is that the “little kid” area is so separate so there is no way to watch big kids while playing with little kids.

My grandson loved playing on the newer kid playsets here. I like that they spaced the equipment apart, so that there is plenty of room for all the kids (and parents) without stepping over each other like some of the other playgrounds tend to be.

It's a great park, but no place to pee.... It upset my 3 year granddaughter to pee behind a tree...

I was actually at the RC field to the east of the Rugby field for National Model Aviation day. The Kansas City Northern Knights has operated he field there since the late 80s when I first became a member. We fly electric Conway and pylon racing every Friday before October alternating events and usually on weekends after noon people will start showing up to fly till dark all year long, weather permitting. Best bet is to check after 3, the sun is in your eyes before 1ish. Also check the Kansas city northern knights Facebook page for contact information/details

Fantastic park! I'm glad I started biking because now I can appreciate the park more.
