It feels a little run down and the big slide is under maintenance. But it is spacious and definitely playable still. I saw a lot of people walking and biking.
Thus is our favorite little park. We used to live within walking distance but recently moved 10 min away drive and still find ourselves coming back to this park. It's perfect size for my toddler. My pictures don't do this park justice but we thoroughly enjoy it and recommend it.
DOG FRIENDLY: Very sweet picnic area that has a beach and walking areas to support a large group or a few people looking for a pretty place for a picnic. Its a quiet place to be casual and relax with a vista. Romantic early morning outdoor date with dogs is marvelous here.
Nice park, plenty of picnic tables, public restroom, frisbie golf, barbeques for grilling and more. Also this seems to be where everyone goes to meet their grinder dates... But they keep it classy.
I come here often because it is right next door to circus Juventus where my children take classes. It's a great playground, very long and tall slides that my kids love. It's never very busy either, with lots of parking and a nice picnic shelter as well.
