Nice place close to the city. Tuck away for a trail walk, run, bike ride or sit along the river or playground.

This is a very clean park. It has tables and some are covered for picnics. There is Johnny on the spots but the restrooms are still closed. The water fountain is still off. There is a creek near by that I have seen people fishing in and kids wadding in. The bike path goes thur to one side so it's easy to ride here. There is a big open space for soccer, frisbee or kite flying. They also have a small splash pad here as well but I have never seen it in action. Very nice place to play.
