Im so elated to have found this tranquil community park. So cozy and peaceful as I sit here on a memorial bench and reflect. 😔 The park resides with City Hall, Police and Fire Stations. 🚉 I like the cute little horse arena for horse riding. 🐎 There are many trails 👣 with wild life and a beautiful play area.for all. This is a perfect get away for the kids so pack up plenty of liquids and bring some snacks or a lunch 😋 Don't forget the sunscreen 🌞 there is minimal shaded areas. There is plenty of parking so don't be shy and bring some friends along and enjoy this fabulous park!

A great park and walk around and enjoy Colorado. The playground is a larger playground so more for 3 and older to play on. There are a lot of geese at the park and a lot of geese poop but the park is still very clean. The bathrooms are well kept and have a baby changing table in them. There is a Pavilion to have a small event at and has many picnic tables to eat at.
