This is a beautiful Park and we went there for the farmers market. I thought there were a lot of different kinds of baked goods, cuisines, And handcrafted products. There was a great variety of everything and best of all, the people that we spoke with were very knowledgeable about their products. It made for a beautiful morning and apparently the farmers market is up and every Saturday from 8:00 a.m. To noon, rain or shine. The entire park was impressive. It was extremely clean and obviously very well manicured and cared for. It had a gorgeous large dog park and it looks like everything is in very good working order.

Nice park, mostly well maintained. Bring your own doggy bags, as they're out. Vandals broke the latch on 1st gate of the small dog area. But I felt relatively safe and my dog throughly enjoyed it

It’s a quiet place. It has a men’s restroom. Stinks, but the toilet does work. I saw two other people here. One was walking a dog and had on a mask. Nobody bothered me for not wearing one. The water in the pond is clear and relatively clean.
