The enclosed dog park is great. The entrance that Google maps took me to was a bit tricky to find. It looks like a business driveway next to a checkers fast food place. Football field, play area, and tennis courts look good while walking by. Has bathrooms but didn't check them out. I'll be bringing the doggo again.

Contains 5 pickleball courts, 2 basketball hoops, 2 toddler swings, 2 adult swings, 2 slides, each with 4 slides (check pictures), 1 monkey swing, 3 kids' musical instruments, 1 kid see saw, 1 football ground, 1 barbecue area. Does not contain pull up bar and other gym-like things though

I read the other reviews, what the others fail to mention is that this park is in the middle of a slightly sketchy area and filled with homeless in the middle of the day on a Monday. Nobody bothered us but I would still recommend you find different park to play pickleball. Entrance is difficult to spot driving with poorly differentiated parking spaces.

Pickleball: the court surface is fine, but the fences along the baseline are too close to the court -- there is about 3-4ft backcourt, so not enough room to properly return a deep serve or chase down a lob. there is a shaded court on the far right, the roots from the tree next to it are just starting to push up the asphalt under the court.

Two large playgrounds. 4 tennis courts. A large rugby field with a paved walking track around it. Parking in the front and back of the field.
