This park has it all . Two playgrounds , a basketball court, a baseball field , a tennis court , a big walking area for your dog . It has plenty of meter parking close. Or depending which way you enter street parking . The park is cleaned and well maintained. No public restroom’s. On the other side there is a school and an additional play ground . 🙏🏼

If this park had Accessible equipment and bathrooms it would be a great park. Be mindful of turkey packs and dogs off leashes. Sometimes the elementary school takes recess here

This place is fun and far from the street with a lots of space for the kids to run around.

Nice park but no shade for the bigger playground. I would not recommend coming here on a hot day to the playground. The plastic gets really hot and there are no trees around to help.

We loved how large this park is and how much stuff the kids had to go play on. I didn't see picnic tables or bathrooms. Also, there is no view of water like it shows on Google. You have about a 10 minute walk or 3 minute drive to get to lake. There was live music though and that was really nice. There is also 2 basket ball courts and a tennis court. Handicapped parking is not very visible but is available
