I grew up going to this park. There is a nice playground, picnic spots, and lots of tennis! Unfortunately I havent been able to visit for recreation much in the last few years. I do go to recycle. Im grateful that they have their city of Columbus recycling collection bins there as it gives me a close location to easily drop off items while out doing my shopping. Im not alone, they need more bins or need to empty them more often.
I was shocked at the condition of the park. There were overflowing trash cans in some of the areas, several small limbs not yet cleaned up, from the last storm I can only assume. Most disappointing was several places on some of the trails had gulleys that could cause someone to fall. Many of the signs on the walking trails were rusted and barely legible. I had not been there since before the pandemic started, and was I ever disappointed to see how rundown the park is. What happened to the play areas? I saw only one. The other smaller ones were gone. It was disappointing to see. I hope the city will get it back to the wonderful area it once was.
Nice big park with multiple playgrounds a really nice tennis court and a large lake where you can fish and feed the geese. Picnic areas all over and a huge walking track. Could use a little more maintenance as far as cleaning but otherwise a great park for the family
So much more can be done..park benches on the trails would be a great start and around the lake
Drove through park for first time, but it looks like itd be fun to take a stroll there.
The playground that used to be there a few years ago was great. The whole park has taken a turn for the worse. Its trashed and dirty and it pretty obvious that the city has abandoned all hope. What was at one time a vibrant oasis is now a steamy pile of dung. Im sad to inform you that its not even worth 1 star now
I loved the cute little ducks and gow you can feed them! Its great for relaxing. It also have a walking trail for those who like to walk or run.
Gorgeous setting and good walking area, but filthy in areas. Needs TLC from city
Nice and quiet.. Peaceful.. Clean... Lots of ducks ... Beautiful...Had breakfast in the car with quiet music..
Nice lake to fish, several parks for the kids, and a walking trail around the entire place. Plus brand new million dollar tennis courts!
Nice and quiet place. Always people walking, biking, dog friendly. Very clean.
Its an older park that could use improving it floods all the time but its great for walking jogging
Good play ground got kids tennis a lake got kids to feed the ducks
It was nice peaceful, pleasant and very beautiful a good place to have a picnic a birthday part
Nice spot to take kids to play. Tennis courts available too
I love sitting by the lake having coffee, breakfast or just sitting. The park is a bit of a mess because of a severe storm we recently had. Wish people would respect Cooper creek and put their trash in the trash can. They are there use them. Ducks and Geese are so sweet
I like be their every day I enjoy morning walking I love environment too.
We love the park! Fun for hours!
Its a nice place to take the kids to play and dogs for walks.
This park has something for everyone, tennis, playground, plenty of areas to eat and lakeside trails for a couple of miles.
Nice spot for family outing. Does need ground maintenance in several areas. Duck and geese can be seen here.
Awesome playground for the kids and even us adults.
I always love coming here its always very clean and quiet .
Excellent view and good for walk all day.
Nice park great for walking lots of trees huge lake for fishing tennis courts also
Ive been a lover of cooper creek forever... I love being out doors... Beautiful scenery ️
It has a cute little play area. The play area could be a bit bigger but its not bad. Its a beautiful open park on the water and with its own walking trail. I did find out that some times its not always safe but when I took my kids they were safe and they had a blast.
Nice but got a little busy for me
Love the peaceful atmosphere and walking trails.
My daughter & I always love to go here. Very well maintained & clean.
Love this park!! Its a very large park with plenty of trails for walking, biking and running. Numerous tennis as well as basketball courts. Super clean with alot of placea tr ok grill, picnic or just relax and people watch. And so many play areas for the kids.
Love seeing the geese and excellent tennis courts.
I love this park. Lovely people frequent here, and when the seasons change its gloriously picturesque. Beware of goose poo-- but dont let that deter you from the serene trail!
It is a clean & relaxing atomshere
Yet another great park in Columbus, GA. Great to drive through or walk on the trails. There is also a paved walk way for biking/walking. Plenty of trees and wonderful scenery for an outing. Covered picnic areas available. The only issue is the ducks do leave little bombs everywhere and it’s quite heavy so keep that in mind.
Great place to learn and play tennis.
Great park just need to be cleaned up and restocked
I love cooper creek. Its my favorite place to go for a run or a walk. Good place to bring your furry friends for a walk too with a leash of course. The scenery is beautiful and everyone around is always so friendly.
Peaceful/very small volume of people
Cooper Creek Park is very good Park. I took my daughter and grandson Peyton here and they loved it. Next time Ill have to bring my dogs, Im quite sure theyll love too
Very peaceful and calming place.
The only reason I will not go five stars is because the city does not keep things in good condition. The tennis courts are great and they have two good sized playgrounds. Fishing is another good option here. The most important reason I will list is because it is a great place to take your dogs in the area. Please do not be ignorant we have a leash law in Columbus and keep your pets on a leash so all of us can have a good time.
Quiet, beautiful, and clean. Regularly patrolled by cops. I go out here every Sunday morning for Tai Chi, its one of the best parks in Columbus
Kids love to fish and enjoy the playground area too. Duck food for sale and they enjoy being fed. Great place for a sunday afternoon barbeque
This is an awesome place for bike riding, walking, fishing, family picnics, and tennis. It also surround by some great neighborhoods like SEARS WOOD. Check out homes for sale in Sears Wood Subdivision- great prices. Awesome place to hang out for a family picnic, walk the dog or work out. Tons of space to park, covered picnic areas, trails, playgrounds and pretty views of the water. The park seems well maintained and safe.
Excellent relaxing park for the entire family.
Its a fun, very pretty place to be. The wildlife is fun and entertaining. Theres plenty of green areas to relax in. Turns out the area to the left of the entrance that has a yellow gate closes a couple hours earlier than the rest of the park. Its really nice over there, and so was the patrol who told me it was closed when I was there 30 minutes later. Bring about a dollar or two in quarters for the geese. Its a fun time.

Its a nice park but still a lot of noise from the roads.
This is by far my favorite park to go to and I love to fish there easy catch as well.
Clean place to picnic. Lots of trash bins.
Love the new play ground
I like it. Nothing fancy, but I think that the management is attentive enough
As always, a lovely place to visit. Good running trail, people who do run or jog can enjoy the scenery on the lake set in the middle with duck and geese wandering around; could even see people hanging out with friends. Granted, Im a fan of the latter, it still makes this a lovely place to visit and have a family outing.
They ttok away almost all the playgrounds
Needs security, broke into my aunts car.
We love this park!! Several playgrounds for the kids. You buy the duck/geese food there and the kids love feeding them. We always have a blast!
Columbus tennis hot spot...nice lake...good walking park...usually very clean.... middle age women in short white skirts....just a bonus️
Okay park for skating, walking, running, biking, etc. Tennis courts are kept up very well.
The childrens play ground is rusty, dilapidated and poorly maintained. The swings have sharp edges protruding from the seats as do some of the climbing equipment. Not a good place for children at all. The entire park has a run down look. If you just want to go for a walk or jog its okay. If you play tennis I suppose its excellent because a lot of money was spent for the tennis area. I dont know if taxpayer money or private funds were spent for the tennis center, but its well maintained.
Ive been walking around this park for about 15 years and its so pleasant to walk the trail and observe the wildlife, both animal and human!
I love going to Cooper creek. Such a beautiful park. Me and my husband took our engagement pictures here.
Nice park. Will be nicer in the spring and summer months.
Weather was nice. We played with new friends on the play ground. The park was nice and clean. There were may familes enjoying cookouts and birthday parties
I wish they would do better at picking up all the trash everywhere.
It was a good place to eat takeout.
This park has one main area for children. There is a great walking and jogging only trail which is 1 1/2 miles long. It is a heat place to watch the sunset or the large number of birds. You may have to watch your step due to all the geese droppings.
Nice park to walk around or have picnicTennis courts. Big lake with ducks, geese, birds, ect.. pavillions for reunions,church functions..ect..
We have had our family reunion here for over 30 years. Its a great little park and we can watch over our children.
Buterful day at the park enjoying my life.. God is good!
It was clean &I love the lake!
Took the grands to feed the geese.
Great place to exercise or walk the dogs. Oh yeah a great place to wear out the most energetic kidd
It is a beautiful place. I know that people go there that dont care about how they treat the park, but you can tell the people who take care of this park puts a lot of heart into their job and never gives up on ensuring it stays beautiful and enjoyed by all!
Great place to relax, walk or fish.
Its so much fun out here the ducks are so sweet i love it
Great place for the kids
This is wonderful Park to go to with the family, including the four-legged furry types.
I enjoy going here and being alone with my thoughts and the wildlife. My daughter wanted to be alone with her thoughts and drawing pad as well.
Great place to walk
