    Cozy little park with a pond and a nice floating stage hidden behind the office buildings at Rt-83 & 22nd St. The parking lot is very small and it fills up really fast during summer night concert events. If you're attending a concert, make sure you park behind REI's back parking lot. They have a door built into the fence at the end of the parking lot, which they keep open during the concerts. If you're looking for an awesome date night, check out their website for a full schedule of the very talented bands. They also have trucks and tents with beer, water, soft drinks and food for sale at reasonable prices. They also have a small playground for the kids to burn off some energy.

    Love this place! One of the very few park districts that have a Nature Center. Great area to bring the kids.

    Almost secluded. There is parking for 8-10 cars only which makes it perfect for picnic. Better yet you can walk half a mile through the woods to Dorothy drennan Park

    We were there for a concert what a nice way to spend a evening. The band was the Buckingham from the 60s.

    I have visited this park many times before and it’s always super clean and kept up with ! Great for kids to play and also take a walk around the pound with the huge fountain. Very well maintained and great place to visit !

    We are visiting here and this location is a short walkable distance from where we are staying. Park is small but well kept. It is home to many geese which my kids love to watch. There is a play ground in the park ( which what I was mainly looking for) the only minus is if you walk walking trail after it’s been raining your shoes, stroller etc will be all in the white mud... and it really gets flooded by swings but I love that chopped up tire-rubber mulch on the playground. And it’s mosly quiet there.

    I went here since the age of 3 and it keeps getting better i love fishing here and the nature center closed down last year because of covid so you may not see the fish, turtles, snakes, and frogs!!!! BIG RECOMENDATION

    Nice, little park with a small playground, path around a small lake/large pond, and a nature center. (Did not visit nature center.)

    Exceptional holiday experience. Beautiful setting. The people of the area were very friendly and the park employees were very accommodating to my friend who works with a cane----gave us a ride on the golf cart!!!

    Beautiful place but insufficient parking.

    Nice fireworks show every year

  • 5/5 Dragos I. 5 years ago on Google
    Great place to visit for children and adults alike. EZ parking. You can take a casual walk around the lake or let the little ones enjoy observing the local fauna and flora. There's always a surprise around the corner.

    Oakbrook Terrace PD seems like a great organization! We loved their start of summer campfire and all the community groups represented there, and the awesome live music and games!

  • 5/5 Rocco D. 1 year ago on Google
    A great venue for a outdoor concert. A little confusing for a first timer with parking but I'll be ready next year I know what to do now
