👍 Nice for small kids. Few trails, you have to walk on streets to walk around the lake or in the grass. People often mention park, small, kids,

    Great park with lots for kids and toddlers to do. The tot park has about 5 fun and safe slides for them as well as a few benches for the parents to sit and relax near the lagoon. Well kept area with two parking lots, but I didn't see a public water fountain or bathroom.

    A nice park if you have small children, or you just enjoy nature. I really love walking around the lake

    Such a great park. Park was clean and has a great shade. 2 sets of playgrounds. Unfortunately the park does not have toilets or porta pottys which you really need if the kids visiting range from 2 and on. It also has a small trail.

    This park is pretty awesome! It's not just one park, but 2! Plenty of room to run, also it is set away from any streets. No need to worry about possible "flight risks" getting away from you! The whole design encourages bravery and athleticism, independent thought, curiosity. The best part is anyone can enjoy it. Trust me, I did!!!

    Short hiking trail but nice park. I was a kid here when this really was a lake you could ice skate on. A bit disappointed by the change into a stone lined drainage canal. Lots of historic homes in the neighborhood.

    I may be biased, but I love this place! It's a small lake, maybe even pond is a better word, and it's right in the middle of a neighborhood. This makes it the perfect place for a quick walk. If you like to walk alone, you will feel safe here. It's also convenient with kids, because there is a playground adjacent to the lake. Surprisingly, A LOT of wildlife call this place home. This is a must visit if you appreciate nature as it is juxtaposed against humanity.

    So clean, not a lot of parking or tables and no restrooms that could be found. Great play area for kids to run and climb.

👍👍 Excellent playground and free splash pads for the little ones. Parents can bring a blanket and lawn chairs on the grass and watch the little ones have water fun. There's also outdoor basketball courts in great conditions right behind the playground. I still can't believe all this is free. Props to t...
