I love this park, I grew up playing here. Its even better now though! I have a son of my own and there are so many different playgrounds for little ones to play on. The park is safe and beautiful, Id recommend it to anyone.

Clean and plenty of things to do and see! Located between another park that has a skate park, basketball courts,, baseball, free archery and on the other side a small mini golf course/batting cage/ roller rink! So the park is surrounded with things to do for everyone!Crapo Park itself is beautiful and is incredibly well kept up! Lots to do there, walking, jogging, nature hikes etc. The kids enjoyed the static displays and the playground equipment with a scenic view of the Mississippi river!River!Highly recommended!

Visited here a lot in my childhood. Back because of family illness. I ate my breakfast here. Nice water features an overlook of the Mississippi River put put golf a playground. I even went down the old curly-q slide for old time sake.

Love this place. Good place to go clear the mind and reconnect, go rock hunting, and just enjoy the beauty of nature God has given us.

What a wonderful area! Had such a wonderful time with family hiking and exploring. Great scenery, plenty of things to do, easy way to spend a few hours

Beautiful and once you find the hidden cave with the little waterfall it’s even more beautiful! It’s a little hard to find and no specific arrows to tell you where though. I even asked a local and he didn’t know about it. Only critique is it needs more signage!

This is a nice quiet park with beautiful trees and a couple playgrounds. There is also a stunning view of the Mississippi River.

Nice clean city park. The river overlook was amazing. Didnt do much else since things were closed either due to Covid or the season.

We are blessed to have some of the most beautiful parks anywhere.

This is one of the most beautiful parks around, i have been going to this park for many many years. Very beautiful and peaceful.

The park is very enjoyable! We ha a great time walking around exploring, and driving through the park. We didnt see it on the map, but we ran across the Sacred Heart Cemetery. It appears to be a Catholic Cemetery. There were lots of statues and other honorary items about. There is even a small section from the 1860s! It isnt in the best condition, it has seen better days, but it looks like effort is being made to keep it going.

Love the park! The view of the river is spectacular and the fountain is awesome

Pretty!!!!! Lots to explore or just roam around. Very scenic

The best park in the state. Possibly the country.

Beautiful park with trails overlooking the Mississippi River. I visit every fall to admire the changing leaves.

Large park. Awesome old slide.

Both parks, Crapo and Dankwardt are wonderful places to play, explore, hike, walk, play a variety of different outdoor activities, and I would highly recommend both!

The park is much bigger than expected and quiet as well.

Always enjoy this park when we visit my daughter. Great views and some historical monuments. Grounds are always kept up nice.

Beautiful vistas, fountains, ponds. Clean and family friendly.

Cool place, lots of mosquitoes

I love waking in the park, so many trails and its always so clean and beautiful.

Burlington has many beautiful parks, but Crapo stands alone in its beauty.

Beautiful! The little hidden trail to the cave was VERY hard to find and deceiving but once found, it was beautiful.

Quiet and nice view of river

Nature is the best! Cool trails and caves ♡

Trails have all eroded away. The city has done nothing to rebuild them.

We love it! We slowly drive through with our Boxer-Pearl in tow. She loves the deer!! As we do! Theyre beautiful and graceful. They arent threatened by us or her whimpering. Then we drive on.

A great place to walk on a brisk Saturday. And if you are into trees, Google Crapo Park Tree List to see the identification chart for the trees. So very very beautiful. The grounds are lovely.

Clean and very pretty.

Great view over looking the Mississippi.

I have loved this place since I was a little girl. It was the first place I ever saw a curly q slide. They take such wonderful care of the flowers and there are some interesting misshapen trees that my kids enjoyed playing on. My brother-in-law used to take my nephew and me there to catch tadpoles more than forty years ago. If only there was better access to this park. The bridge on the east end of town has been out of service for a terribly long time.

Pagan Festival was fun!

Beautiful park.

Amazing park. It has just about anything you need at a park to have fun. Great play areas for families. Hiking trails with great views of the river. We only visit once per year so I am sure there are other areas of the park we dont even know about.

We enjoyed the view over the river and the kids enjoyed seeing the old cannons. We also saw some baby deer on our way put of the park.

Nice place to go for a walk

I like it this Park and Burlington iowa

This park is an absolute treasure in this town. Its beautiful, scenic, well-kept, and utterly serene. There are great trails and pathways throughout the park, and Ive seen everything from eagles, deer, vultures, owls, bobcats, and turtles all over the park. I find this park so peaceful that last spring and summer I lost over 100 pounds from merely walking the park for an hour or two a day. Amazingly, this park is rarely crowded and Ive often nearly had the place to myself on beautiful days.

This park is beautiful and well kept. I visit here often.

Great time every year for Symphonic Blast. Get there early, picnic and enjoy the symphony plus the fireworks. Our favorite spot for family photos as well as the spiral slide. Enjoy the views of the river. The Cascade Bridge may be closed for now, so donate to get it reopened and youll be glad when it is easier to get around.

Went for a walk on somewhat humid day. The nice sidewalks are great. Enough trees to have shade now and then. Love the park!

Very pretty park, well maintained and the plants and trees are very pretty. Nice pond with geese, great place to walk with family or your dog. Great for pictures all seasons and nice playground for kids.

Always love going to this park when Im in Burlington

LOVED IT. FAMILY FUN!!!

Childhood memories and thrilling.

Nice park for get togethers

One of the only things I like in this town. Multiple trails, many things to see, and lots of things make it lively. Makes you think that maybe the world isnt so terrible sometimes

Crapo Park was created as an arboretum in 1895 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. There are 2 play areas, tennis courts, and the city swimming pool is adjacent to the park - as are local Little League diamonds and a dog park. Lots of walking paths, shelter houses, a horse-shoe pitch, a lovely fountain that is lit up at night, the bandshell which hosts the local muni band every Sunday through the summer, a terrific river view and historic trails along the bluffs. There is also a 5-star disc golf course and a skate park in Dankwardt Park, which is adjacent, so that the two parks are really just one spot. The photo here is from my daughters wedding in the park in 2013.

Its so clean and nice theres even a wedding spot here.

Always something to do at crapo park. When my daughter was young enjoyed playground now take dog for run on trails.

Love this place, you can just walk the trails or park, playgrounds, close to water, frisbee golf, bow practice..

Beautiful park! Great place to relax. Had a great time playing the disc golf tournament here.

Great place for a lovely walk! good playground for smaller kids too.

Big park. Frisbee golf available with some of the best players in the state.

The kids enjoyed feeding the Ducks leftover bread we brought from home. We sat and had a picnic although the gnats were really annoying that day. kids enjoy playing on the playground and looking for painted rocks

Its a beautiful park, with quite a bit to do. Though I will say, the Park Rangers are hard to find when you need their assistance, and the they usually close the bathrooms for thw winter in August and open them for the summer in May.

Very nice city park excellent

Beautiful peaceful place

Good place to take a walk in relax with your dog

Good make out spot for sunset. We enjoyed it.

Fun family day trip. Clean and safe.

Nice park with an overlook of the bluffs, and even has a skate park nearby. Though keep in mind the restrooms apparently are kept closed during winter.

Nice place to get away

Best park around. So beautiful and clean. My family and I spend alot of time here.

I am visiting Burlington for a couple days and got to go to my Great Granddaughters ballgame.

Childrens play area, flowers, bandstand, scenic view of the Mississippi River, shelter house with picnic tables, Lake Starker

Clean, beautiful grounds. Has a pond with some fish. Wonderful park for get-to-gathers, or just enjoying the weather. I love Crapo Park and have been coming here for many years. I love to walk my dog in the park.

I love our park. It is so well kept up and beautiful. Thanks to everyone who works so hard to keep our park the special place it has become.

Beautiful, historical, sprawling arboretum. Trees and garden beds are gorgeous and well kept, as are the parks sculptures and activity facilities. One of my favorite places to spend an afternoon on Burlington. I try not to miss the free summer band concert series, every Sunday at 7 at the band shell.

Feeling blessed and thankful the park is relaxing.

Symphonic Blast was Awesome!!!

Great play area for older kids, sand volley ball, skate park, outdoor swimming pool, disc golf, archery targets, dog park, and little league style baseball diamonds, tennis courts.

We love Crapo Park!!! Our favorite is the waterfall!!!!

There are fun trails you can take
