This park has almost everything. A beautiful lake that, in the warmer months, is often filled with geese. It has almost everything a park should. A playground. An old yet functional basketball court. A dog park. A picnic area. There are plenty of places to sit. I've also noticed that about 90-95% of the benches have some sort of memorial on them. Great place to bring kids, go for a walk, walk your dog, or just relax. There are also a good amount of trash cans throughout the park, conveniently placed. They also have wheelchair accessible parking.

Nice little park with an artificial lake full of ducks, basketball and baseball fields and a playground. Plenty of benches and grass. Very nice.

Cool, Quite and clean park. I recommend going there with the kids or going there for meditation.

Somewhat clean, concerned as several police there, seemed quite safe - kids loved the mini-hills and ducks, restrooms clean, but on busy Sunday - no toilet paper left

Nice park but they lock the bathrooms 🚻 building early around 5pm
