The pictures now are outdated. There is a fenced playground near those large animal sculptures for small children, and a koi pond on both ends of the park. The center has a field where kids play football or soccer. There is no picnic area or dog park. There is a small bathroom which is often closed.

Wonderful park with a beautiful lake at its center, plenty of picturesque hiking trails winding through the woods, covered picnic areas, and a paved path around the lake. Highly recommended.

I visited this park for the sole purpose of hiking AllTrails Heatherbrook and Webster Park Trail. The trail connects the two parks, Heatherbrook and Webster, which I don't really see the point of beyond providing a decent, shady walk through the woods. For those out to use the park facilities, it's easier just to drive directly to each individual park. As trails go, I enjoyed the hike, but there is no way this trail would be navigable in wet weather or for a few days after a rainstorm - it's almost exclusively dirt with a lot of erosion from water runoff. I'm glad I picked a dry day after a few days with no rain. Still, it's nice that the City of St Charles has set aside this land for Park use and is doing a pretty good job of maintaining it, including a community building in Webster Park that looks very inviting for group activities. Plus there are toilets in each of the parks.
