Great walking path around the pond. Nice people walking. A nice breath of fresh air during the pandemic; most were wearing masks while walking/jogging.
As a long time Chesterfield resident, Im very proud of this park. The sculpture, The Awakening, is worth the visit alone. The park includes a high end amphitheatre thats less than 10 years old, and a nice outdoor pool and water park. Theres a playground and two trails that include paved paths, lakes, bridges, and sculptures.
Had a picnic with our young granddaughters then took them fishing at the lake. They had a great time catching sunfishThe park was very clean and inviting. We will hopefully continue to make memories in the future.
The pavilion was incredible and had a serving platform with more than enough outlets. Clean and well kept and only a few steps away from the playground.
What a fun park with several different areas for kids that sprawl out and play. Will definitely be back! :)
This park has a little for everyone! The playground is huge and has different play areas for older and younger kids. There are also some great trails with a peaceful brook running through the back of the park. My kids love to play in the water and climb on the rocks. The stream also leads to a lake with fishing spots avaikable. If you enjoy sculpture there are some huge modern pieces to enjoy while hiking through the nice wooded walkways.
Need an entrance for older adults unless We missed an easier entrance/ exit. It was very difficult getting back up the ramp and stairs.thank you
Top notch family fun. No doubt one of the best municipal parks on our region.
A beautiful centerpiece to the wonderful area that Chesterfield is.. The cute little picnic spots littered out, the perfectly sized n elevated running laps the place offers and the quietness this place offers is unenviable..
Fun park that will be more fun once the playground is open. There are nice paved trails that are perfect for strollers. There are man-made creeks around the main water. One has a trail with giant pavers mostly that is nice for kids to play in like a big splash pad.
Great place to take the kids! Nice playground. Fantastic paved walking path around the lake. Take some bread to feed the fish from the bridge. Take a detour through the amphitheater, admire the beautiful veterans memorial fountain and then cross the street to see The Awakening sculpture! Kids will love it. Parents will love it for the easy parking and clean, climate-controlled bathrooms.
It has a n great nature trail around a lake. Less than a mile long.
Very nice park. Excellent place to take the kids and/or grandkids.
A very nice and orderly park that is situated in a good place between other businesses and a very nice library. It also very clean. Recommend for families and individuals alike!
Beautiful fall setting, great place to walk, and for kids to catch fish
Great local park for walking. Very peaceful. Woodsy in some areas, exposed to full sunlight in others.
Probably one of my favorite parks. The entire landscape is gorgeous and the flood protection around the lake is really nice and takes away the worry that the park will ever be flooded. There is a huge playground and beautiful streams in the park. On Monday night we saw 3 deer walking along the lake.
A fun, peaceful, well-kept environment.
Nice place for kids to walk, play and fish.
Very nice park located next to Chesterfield mall. Had a great time with the family. Had fun walking the stream and lake. Had a picnic inside the empty amphitheater and played around on the emply stage. Playground looked nice but very busy. Would have done some fishing if the weather was nicer!
Really nice walking path with many different trails off the path. Good spot to observe and enjoy nature but remember to bring bug spray. squitos are really bad there.
Such a great relaxing place.. great walking areas to use and a relaxing water feature!
Fun to walk around with young kids and with a stroller. Theres plenty of shade and places to stop and sit
Beautiful park with a great space to walk or run.
A great place to be outdoors. Walking trails, lake, playground, amphitheatre. Its always bustling with people. YMCA borders lake and chesterfield library is close too.
Very busy, even crowded. Not many people wearing masks
Great for families and people who like to walk around a nice lake.
Very nice park lots of outlets.
Fun park! Our first time there and was impressed. Nice big playground with a smaller structure for little kids. Best part was the creek though.....what kids dont love a creek! We will definitely be back
Truly a beautiful spot. Tranquility and peace. There is also an amazing playground set away from the peaceful walking trails that is perfect for kids.
I drive through Central Park on way to Y for Jims yoga class @ 9am. My drive takes me by the magnificent Awakening sculpture and then the Veterans Honor Park. Today I noticed two threatening creatures have been employed no doubt to deter geese or other wildlife from taking up residence in front of the Amphitheatre. They seemed to be doing a good job of it as the geese are staying in the field across the road (hee hee).
Really pretty calm area... Loved it
Nice playground for the kids. 3pm on a Thursday and had the place ourselves! I like the fact that the slides and stuff are in great condition. The ground is rubbery and the kids have lots of room to run.
This is really a cool place for celebration and public events..
I come here for Pokémon, but the park is great! Always clean and plenty of paths with space. Very pretty.
Home away from home for peace
Great place to go walking.
Great trail for walking with young families. Good playground too.
Nice park and venue in Chesterfield.Walkable, trees, art and sculptures, fields, large pond (small lake?) with fishing, and playgrounds... All while nestled between attractions from city pool, YMCA, and small amphitheatre.All in all a nice place to play
Very clean, beautiful
Nice park. Trails are hilly, so if you have trouble with a change in elevation or use walking assistance maybe not the best park. The lake is fun and has fish and geese. The Trails are well maintained. The playground is big and looks safe and well maintained. I like the shade on the trails and all of the water at this park. Great to visit once or a hundred times.
Large playground with rubberized surface. Pavilion with picnic tables & longer picnic tables, as well as benches, scattered throughout. Beautiful rocks with flowing stream to lake, with footpaths on either side encircling entire lake Bridge & pavilion over lake. Amphitheater. Well kept & clean.
Awesome park to walk in. You can go fishing in the lake. Swim in the Chesterfield pool. Go to concerts at the Amphitheatre. Take the children to the play area or just chill with a book under a gazebo.
Beautiful. Great atmosphere. Had a blast
Love the park. Only problem is it constantly smells like herbicides. I get a headache every other time I go here and am constantly seeing the staff spraying herbicides, even with people and kids playing right there.
Gorgeous park
Nice place for family outing
My wife and I enjoyed ourselves at Central Park decent sized Park very relaxing is what you would expect
Beautiful and unexpected
Great place for walking either children or your dog.
Always a nice visit, especially on such a gorgeous day!
Nice park, good views and listening to the water is nice. Overall I prefer Faust Park. Theres a path at Central along the water that is mud. They need to pave that path asap. Additionally, I dont know if the city of chesterfield has heard, theres a park in NYC called Central Park. Its kind of a big deal, been in movies etc... So naming your park the same in kinda obtuse to say the least.
Its beautiful Im just outhere setting up for some event thats going on
Nice walk around the lake. Saw a lot of friends.
Walk down the natural stream down and around the pond, play on the playground, or even catch a show at the amphitheater. beautiful layout!
If you was.nt in chesterfield for the jazz festival. All i can say is...you miss a good time..central patk is still beautiful and early we got to see the planes low flying as the spirit of st.louis air show is going on...etc...etc...just like having it all in one place. Chesterfield is got it going on this evening.
We love going for walks here especially in the fall.
Beautiful park!!! Clean a d well designed. We had a great time here!
Nice walking path around the lake. Playground with nearby parking. YMCA and city amphitheater adjoin park.
Lovely park with a nice lake. Lots of milkweed and some art. Fishing.
Nice park
Awesome place for a nice evening with kids!
We love this park! Great playground, water park, playground, and art exhibits. They have the most beautiful trail... it’s so pretty and relaxing. This is our cool down park at least 2-3 times a week.
So much to do, from the trails to the park to the pool. The pool area is one of the best public pools in the St Louis area!
I come here every morning for peace and quiet before work and after work
Whoah
Good park that often has events.
Clean restroom. Nice lake to jog around. Fishing allowed
Beautiful place for a short walk.
Fun, big, and clean.. your kids will love it and will enjoy themselves
Nice to place go for an evening walk..nature bestowed placeChirping sounds of birds..and a water source nearby will surely enthrall people who goes by
Beautiful little park, hidden away close to the mall
The rising art display is incredible
Very nice amphitheater with tiered grass seating
Awesome! Nice family place.
