Nice little park. Very cool giant Banyan tree. There's a great little parking lot here that's handy for cheap downtown parking. I've never had an issue, but beware...there looked like there was someone living in the tree...and I don't mean the spirit faces or the duck.

This park has 2 playgrounds for varying ages and features a dog park, workout trail, soccer field, and basketball courts. The park is streetside, so it's best to keep an eye out on little ones but it's far enough that I felt comfortable. There was shade and a Pavillion with picnic tables, which was nice. The restrooms were clean when we used them.

Just wanted to stop and see if we would enjoy this park but wasn’t much fun. It’s pretty outdated and unclean. It needs to be pressure washed and some new things added and it might be worth bringing children but it kind of felt like it was dirty and a place where kids come to get sick.
