Pretty chill park with picnic tables, trees, a playground, basketball court, benches, porta-potty, and flower garden. Sometimes people let their dogs run around without a leash, which can be annoying, but you can usually find a quiet place to relax. Also, Safeway is nearby if you end up needing sunscreen, drinks, snacks, etc., and Byblo's is very close if you want to eat at a restaurant.

Beautiful park to hang out at. Speer isn't too loud and generally, if it is too loud, I'll move over to the playground area. Took my cat put for a walk and he loved it! It's a fantastic place to take photos. I recomend the spring and early summer to see all the flowers. It is a clearly well cared for park!
