Cute and quiet and secluded but there is no dog area and the people who live around it are very snoopy of park goers and stood out and watched us for about 30 minutes and seemed quite aggressive about it. Would not recommend if you have pets. Fine for kids only if attended with an adult.

not much to see, very small neighborhood park , no basketball court, no swimming pool, no jogging track, no exercise equipment and most of all no people... just some grass, a few trees, two picnic tables, two barbecue grills under an overhead and a whole lot of quiet. nice place for a small private party... first come first serve. great place to pray and meditate. If you plan to bring children, be sure to also bring a frisbee, kite, soccer ball, softball or football to keep them entertained.

The park is small and under renovation. They are putting new grass. I wouldn't normally take points off for that, but there was a smell of sewage in the area. Not sure if that's related to the work being done. Still, they have brand new barbecue grills and it was really nice being able to cook my dinner on a clean grill.

Very nice little neighborhood park that is tucked away if you're in the area most of the time it is empty or only has 1 or 2 kids perfect for small toddlers.
