    A very beautiful hidden gem in the middle of the city. Plenty of space to relax and enjoy plenty of tranquility as you are surrounded by a great variety of wildlife that comes up to you without any fear (different species of ducks and other birds). This would be an ideal location for a family getogether or a romantic getaway. Very clean despite a few homeless people in the area. March, 30, 2022, Still a beautiful place

    This park is close to where I dog walk so it’s very convenient to walk to. There is plenty of space and a cute pond in the middle. However, there tends to be a lot of homeless in the mornings and a lot of trash is left behind, especially along the edge of the park. Please pick up your trash to keep parks clean! :)

    It's a nice place but there are bees swarming in the trees. I was like terrified. We pulled up and parked rolled the windows down and here come the bees in the car. I just had to let ya'll know be careful. We left after I filmed it to post.

    Park is conveniently located but it is filthy with duck poop everywhere, trash, homeless people, and the pond is gross. You can’t walk through the park bc of duck poop and please don’t try to picnic here. City needs to keep this park maintained much better.

    Love all the ducks, the huge size of the park and great staff. And its right next to police station so it feels "Extra" safe. Needs more tables and benches or Id give it 5 stars

    I brought my daughter here to see the ducks and she really liked it. It's a nice park! But I felt so bad to see mama duck with all her duckies swimming in the dirty pond. There was so much trash I hope they clean it soon.

    There's always duck poop all over the place! I have to tippy toe my way around and dodging dookie on the pavement. Can't sit on the benches either cuz most likely kaka is on it! There's always some random homeless guy selling makeup...

    Not that I have a pet but their pet park is pretty nice. Tennis court is way too far. The court is next to the playground and the restroom, now that's a plus. The pond is nice but too much bird poop.

  • 4/5 Deval S. 1 year ago on Google
    went during afternoon time on a monday so it was very peaceful. barely any water in some part of the pond but it's understandable in the drought. birds were all around the park doing their own thing untill a lady came to feed them bread. DO NOT FEED the birds. bread is really bad for them. saw at least 6-7 difference species of birds. plenty of parking

    Actually a good park. I did not have high expectations, so probably that is why I liked it so much. A lot to see and long green trail.

  • 5/5 Skanless M. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice park nice walk path and also cool area for the kids, also community center has a nice bunch of people that offer good services for kids throughout the year....duck pond and cool little water falls throughout the park, turtles, and swans , ducks are roaming the area, also great scenery for taking wedding photos or any other, has a great backdrop for that. Also park sits right next to police station.

    My discription of Scherer Park would be Beautiful, Green Pastures, and Peaceful. Not to mention, the lake where the ducks are enjoying their days and nights!

  • 3/5 James T. 2 years ago on Google
    Needs the city to get the park people to go through and clean the damn place. The water was horrible need the fountain on or something. No water in the little creek. It's a good place to take some pictures but definitely needs some TLC!
