Lots of open space to roam and splay a game of ball. There's the big stage they hold concerts on and plently of fairly clean Porta pottys with handwashing stations. The pond is nice to look at. There's multiple playground and pickleball courts. There are two sides to this park so check which side you need to goto before heading there.

It’s clean and a beautiful park. They have big playground for kids to play and run around. Many gazebos for birthday parties and other events. They have basketball court and pickleball. There’s a trail that can go around the lake. It has an open stage for concert or events maybe. There’s a vegetable garden. Only u will see a lot of poops from the geese on the pavers.

This is a great space and one of our favorite parks. I've been living in the area for 12 years and it's been in the works for that long - so I'm really glad it has not disappointed. Features: 1. Younger child playground area with clubhouse and very cool slides and toys along with baby swings. 2. Older child area with extensive climbing, zip line, tire swing, and conventional swings 3. Water play area for children where they can experiment with diverting the flow of water various ways with rocks and built-in dam mechanisms. Some parks I'd say bring your kids in suits. This isn't one of them...enough water features for some fun but probably not an hour's worth. 4. Full, clean and generally well maintained restrooms. 5. Adult exercise equipment and community garden to walk through. 6. Shaded picnic pavilions 7. Stocked fishing ponds Cons: So two things to note: this park is surrounded by a LOT of water, and on the north side of the field are some very active train and soon light rail tracks that are fenced off. So while this is an amazing spot it's just worth noting that it's one you need to be perhaps more aware at. There are places where a child can easily climb over the wall and find themselves in a body of water right next to the playground as well.

beautiful scenery. not too busy. no equipment was broken. the park was clean. you've got fishing and sidewalk for walks around the lake. the kiddie park is veggie themed with animals such as caterpillars frogs raccoons and lady bugs. the zip line was super fun. the treehouse theme for the bigger park was extremely fun as well. this was the best experience at a park i have ever had.
