This is a well-maintained Park. It has a nice pond with a paddle boat for free use, three well-maintained excellent full size basketball courts it has well-maintained tennis courts, a splash pad for kids, ice rink in the winter, and quite a few amazing sledding hills. The walking trails are also really nice, my family and I will definitely be going back there.

I used to come here when I was a kid and it was really fun with the park, splash pad, the open grasses where I used to play soccer on, playing basketball on the basketball court, the huge hill in the park I used to sled down on, and walking and biking on the trails in the park. All really fun, but unfortunately they did not have the paddle boat on the pond when I was a kid.

The ground needs to be power cleaned. There is black slime everywhere you turn. My poor kids were slipping and sliding just walking threw. The water was so cold that my kids and me couldnt get in it. Most days there are hardly any kids here because its so cold. Its a great idea but why not try to figure out how to warm it . I used a thermometer to test the water temp and its 53° . Way to cold and could send someone into shock being that cold.

Great place for a quick breakfast. The service was efficient my meal coming within five minutes from the time ordered. Food was cooked as per my request and was plenty full. Next time your in need of a quick bite, give this restaurant a try.

Great park with lots of open grass. There is a nice walking trail as well connecting to a nearby development.The playground is a ways away from the parking lot, which is really nice so you can really let the kids run without worrying about them accidentally heading towards cars.There all also tennis courts and baseball fields. There is a building, I assume you can rent it or whatever from the city.It was clean, nice, etc.

The water is too cold! They should figure out a way to heat the water. Then it would be great.

This was a fun play area for my daughter and I to visit, although it was one of the most expensive weve been to. The additions since new owners took over are fun but not enough to warrant the price increase in my mind.Also, would only recommend for younger kids, anyone over 7ish in age would get bored easily.With all this said it was a fun visit for a 5 year old.
