This is a great place for family gatherings, children to go and play and let some energy out, have little events, BBQ on a sunny Sunday afternoon, or even play at the pickleball and/or volleyball courts. It's dog friendly, as long as you keep your furry friends on a leash, and clean-up your mess after them. There are places to plug in and charge your phone or plug in a bluetooth speaker or laptop when you want to get out and take your electronics with you, all while sitting on the bench tables in the shade, if you look hard enough you'll find a perfect spot. The restrooms have ample space, but it's separate women/men restrooms and not unisex/private bathrooms. The bulk of the park appears to be wheelchair accessible. Plenty of trash cans, so that you can take your refuse with you (and not litter the park). There is City of St George (public) Wi-Fi nearby, but it seemed reasonably spotty in most areas of the park that I ventured around. I'm guessing it's coming from the Recreation (rec) center across the street and not actually broadcasting at the park. There is ample sidewalks for taking a nice Sunday stroll or riding little scooters. I saw a few people scooter riding and walking their dogs or kids in a stroller. It has ample room for people to move in both directions on the sidewalk. Therw is ample parking with a parking lot on the side by the pickleball courts. It looks like they do plenty of concerts/venues in the park with listings on their website as well.

Doggy bags are in one specific location, the western entrance of the park. Nice area, highly populated, though, if you have high anxiety, be prepared for plenty of happy noise and lots of people running around enjoying themselves. Beautiful open pasture. Probably not allowed to off leash my dog but I have had good experiences with crypton there. Twitch.tv/jaygrizzly69 to see a walk at this park.

Had a great time with my kids and grandkids at the farmers market this Saturday after Thanksgiving this year. Such a great playground for the kids and it was fun to browse the stalls and the food trucks were yummy. Especially the biscuit food truck, I love their gluten-free biscuits!

This might be the finest playground and park we've visited in a long time. Kids friendly. Water fountains bathrooms and picnic tables by entrance. Fun playgrounds of various climbs for all ages. The park is clean. Benches and some shades. It's a welcoming site and very relaxing to sit, watch children play. Highly recommended for any families.

A fun, spacious park with great views of the Dixie rock and surrounding hills! The pickle ball courts are awesome with covered benches. Big open areas to lay down and lots of trees.
