It’s a cute, small park. Seems big enough for a group of kids! Functional equipment which is great Nearby is a cute little trail to walk & also an amazing pond view. Definitely would be a good place to bring kids. Be mindful of where they step. The water seems to go out a good distance Tiny little parking lot nearby for a decent amount of cars

Good place to walk our dogs, never crowded - nice tree covered paved paths (no ticks) that give you about 1.5 / 2 miles of a scenic walk through wilderness - then there's the trails in the woods if you want more seclusion. Lots of picnicing areas all over with beautiful brooks and a large pond. It's a family oriented park that has a nice playground & pools as well.

Beautiful park with amazing trails, pool in the summer, basketball court, and playground. Love the picnic areas. You can rent the spaces at city hall. The water by the trails is serene and calming. I loved playing here as a kid.

Great for kids, they have updated the playground and pool areas. Many people love to bring their dogs. Lots of recreational teams play here (cricket, baseball/softball, and basketball are the most popular). You HAVE to rent the picnic areas for grilling and parties. Go to Town Hall to set up the day.

This is a very nice park to come here with your family. They have outdoor grills picnic tables a big pond a big pool and also a playground so the kids can play. They also have a paved path around the back that you can walk around the entire pond on a loop trail. I come here at least twice a month because it's a beautiful place to just relax and walk your pet. You will see all kinds of ducks and wildlife out here. It's great for bicycling hiking fishing cookouts and family get togethers I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you have not been here already. You will be very happy and please with this place because it is beautiful.
