    Had a blast! One of our favorite parks! Tucked away off ofHirstbourne near Whipps Mill, it's small, quiet, and well kept. The creek is nice, and my girls love it!

    Great place to take the kids and dogs for fun in the sun. The bridge over the creek is great for little kids to catch dragonflies - but don't be surprised to find turtles and fish and maybe a snake or two in the creek as well. The park is always clean with lots of grass and trees to run around and play in

    Safe park. Has a shelter available for use. Theres a small walking path. Lots of greenery, a few benches along the path. Playground is close to the shelter. The park also has a soccer field and tennis court which are often in use. Playground is in good condition. Plenty of parking.

    We like this park a lot. The playground is shaded, which is nice. There is also a nice creek, where kids can catch minnows and crayfish. The only thing I don't like is that there is only a portable toilet and not a real restroom.

    Well-kept grounds with a nice playground. Pavillion is about 50 yards from the creek, which has nice big flat rocks to step on to go near the water. Nice place for a get together or a family picnic.

    The park was nice and clean. Great grassy areas for kids. Playground was fun even for me as an adult (mostly swings)

    Played some pickleball and let my service dog Noobeus run the creek. Nice time before the rain came in. Lol.

    We were there to support refugees from Ukraine. Sad to see so many people forced out of their country by mad man Putin. The park is awesome.

    This park has the perfect shaded playground, no fences but it's well off the road. I love grabbing lunch and having a picnic by the creek with my kids before letting them have at the playground.

  • 4/5 Katelyn H. 11 months ago on Google
    It was an absolutely beautiful park I just wish they had bathrooms

    Only 3 courts, but they are nice for a small group to meet and play.

  • 4/5 Jr F. 9 months ago on Google
    Nice little park, they need to fix the net on the soccer goals.

  • 4/5 Damion L. 1 year ago on Google
    Was really pretty with all the trees this time of year😍 pavilion available for larger gatherings and grills available at several spots throughout the recreational area

    What this park lacks in walking trails and bathrooms it makes up for in post rain puddles and open fields for furry friends or children to run in. There is a playground area with benches, tennis courts, a portable potty, a small bridge and a picnic shelter. It’s a small, peaceful space away from main roads. I’ve been here a handful of times. It has never been crowded.

    It's small and very clean and pretty. Grandchildren love to play here. Great for family picnics too.

  • 4/5 Michael S. 1 year ago on Google
    Small park but fun for kids 8ish and under. Creek has plenty to poke around in and a shelter for picnics. Playground is small but in good shape. Pickleball and tennis courts.

    Nice little playground for our toddler son. Visiting from our of town and doing the hotel stays often are tiresome and confined for him, but the nice park gabe home a place to run. Good place to relax and rest.

    Nice place for a picnic or round of tennis. They have small hiking trails and baseball fields, and with the entrance to Tom Sawyer being closed off, it's a nice fallback to go to and kick back and relax. The only negative I would have is that they don't spray for insects, so there are a lot of flies and mosquitos to contend with. I've seen deer in the area along with friendly squirrels, possums, and other wildlife around the area as well for the nature lovers. I go there a couple times a week because I live close-by, and it's a nice place to relax and reflect. I recommend this park for you and your families for a day out.

    I love this little park creek. I used to go all the time as a kid to catch fish and butterflies with my family. It's the cutest!

  • 5/5 Nathan B. 5 years ago on Google
    What a wonderful little green space to relax in after a day of work. Perfect place fo the kids to play and a great spot to relax next to the creek.

  • 5/5 Erica B. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice small park, I wouldn't have known it was there if we weren't going to a bday party. Nice gazebo area, cute bridge, small creek, great play area, tennis court and another smaller court not sure what it was for though. Would be a lovely place for photos.

  • 5/5 Natalie B. 2 years ago on Google
    A great place to step out of daily run around and tap into nature. I love to sit near the creek and listen to the water. And the kids can play and run around freely!
