Very nice and spacious park with tennis courts, football field, walking trail, and a playground. However there have been multiple car break-ins in the small parking lot. I would advise not leaving valuables in your car and wish there were more patrols in the lot. Everyone Ive encountered in the park, however, has been polite and kind.

Nice little park in a nice little neighborhood. Great for walking, sports games and picnics. Has a swimming pool, playground and tennis court. Also has a pavilion with a fireplace and restrooms. I visited this park on July, 10 2018 and it says the pool is closed on Sundays & Tuesdays. Parking is one way in and one way out.

Good for walking. Well maintained and user-friendly. Maybe Park Board could consider placing doggie poop bags stations. Some pet owners are not picking up after their pets

Very clean! The atmosphere is peaceful! The walking /running trails are beautiful ! My daughter and I use to walk at another park, but we started to come here because the other park had wild dogs roaming around and the walking/running trails were not paved and the gravel was hard to walk on and it was not clean!! We were afraid that the dogs were going to attack us. I had to take a cane with me just in case.But now we dont have any plans to go back to that particular park again ! At Crestwood Park we have found our safe, clean. Peaceful place to walk in peace!

This is very nice park. The playground for kids is good but not big enough for the size of the community. It feels safe and I really dont mind to see homeless people, on the contrary, I help them when I can but sometime I had seen suspicious people. Overall its a great location!

On gameday (Saturday), parking is somewhat limited. The street on backside of park is so tight, its basically a 1 way. Some park in the grassy medium on Crestwood Blvd. Love how they built up the park!

Hard to find the entrance due to the GPS. Suggest updating their maps. The bathrooms needing a key, while practical for them, seem weird at a public park. The amount of picnic tables under the pavilion is great. The playground sets are awesome. My kids played for hours.

I like this park. Its nice and quiet. Has a great atmosphere and I love to walk around their trail. The only con I would have to say is sometimes people walk their dogs without leashes, but other than that its a good park

Great park. Has a toddler area as well an area for older children. Its not very well shaded for the summer time. There is a canopy for the toddler area but its only shaded in the morning times. It is connected to a public swimming pool thats open in the summer time. $1 Admission, you must have on a proper swim suit. Also, swimming lessons are $5 for a 2 week period in the morning time . Your child must be able to stand in the 3 ft ( as far as I know). There is also a track around a football field adjacent to tennis courts.

Good running track and tennis courts. Lots of people walk their dogs. The perpetually locked bathrooms, however, are an affront to all that is good in the universe.Would be five stars if theyd open the bathroom.

Review №63

This park is excellent for walking and outdoor exercise for people of all ages. The walking track is mostly level with a gradual incline, as are the extra loops at the west end, which have benches placed at convenient places. The park is well maintained, with no broken pavements or significant fall risks. The park is well used, in a safe area, and has a welcoming atmosphere. There are three covered places to seek shelter from any sudden rain showers. The landscaping is attractive, and the creek that flows through (and under) the park adds interest. Its a perfect place to cultivate an exercise habit.

Good walking trail, and open field area. There is a small playground for kids of every age. Could use from more big trees, especially around the playground, as its pretty unbearable to go there during the heat of summer.
