Nice park. Two big grass fields. The playground is nice but in full sun with no shade. Slides get hot super fast. Has bathrooms.

It's normally a nice quiet Park. It is long and on the thin side. Plenty of parking. A bathroom at either end and one in the middle with a play area nearby. Plenty of park benches and trees for a picnic. It's a nice flat location to walk in. I do see plenty of people walking their dogs and I see people walking without dogs.

We came here to walk the dogs. Two huge grass fields with a playground in the middle of it. Very nice and relaxing. Lots of soccer practice was going on, a nice place to burn some energy. You can park at the west side of the park which is the school otherwise there is a northern parking lot running up and down the north of the park.

Great park, very big with plenty of benches to sit underneath the trees. Bike trail across the street. Playground is awesome. Maintenance does a great job. It's clean and pleasant with access to public restrooms that are kept clean.
