The park has tennis courts, ball fields, and an access to the Third Fork bike and pedestrian trail. It is well maintained, and has plenty of parking. It needs a plsyground and a pedestrian crosswalk across Avondale at Alpine.

Park has tennis, basketball and geocaching.This park is the trail head for the Third Fork Greenway. I really like the greenway in the morning as dawn arrives. Owls, deer and other wildlife more abundant than other areas. It is very peaceful with longtime regulars that I recognize over the years. The deer also make a loop in the afternoon around 12:20 by Cardinal dr so a lunch ride will often see the family having a munch.

Nice sports park with restrooms, many Tennis Courts, 2 Baseball/Softball fields and several Basketball Courts... plus an entrance to the paved trails for walking, running and biking. A few picnic tables would be a lovely addition.

The trail goes behind the public works from this park, so there are areas along this stretch of trail that are not shaded at all during the summer. The restrooms are very clean here and there is a designated parking lot! (Good for traveling with children) Convenient location for people living in the area, but there are better access points to the trail if you plan to go for a longer run and desire a more natural or shaded landscape.

The tennis courts are in great condition. There are 7 or 8, very well lit so playing at night is nice. There is also a basketball court and a large field where you could play baseball / kickball /whatever. Plenty of parking.

Plenty of tennis courts, ball fields, and basketball hoops. It is also a great place to park to use the Greenway trail. It doesnt have a playground for smaller children though.

Located at one end of the Third Fork Creek Trail, this park offers tennis, basketball, baseball fields, a nice well lit parking lot, and a small shelter with bathroom. The shelter is currently closed for construction.

Review №38

Not a great experience at first because the GPS leads you the wrong way. Once I arrived at the park I was shocked at how nice the tennis courts were. There are 8 tennis courts with two of them being separated from the main 6 courts. This is not my preferred tennis location, the courts are in great shape, just be careful at night.

I play tennis so I enjoy the new courts. The rest of the facility seems to be working well.

We were robbed the day after Thanksgiving in broad daylight while playing basketball on the outdoor courts. A youth had approached our game and was staring at us when he suddenly stole a purse that we had left on the bench. After talking to police and the other parkgoers, we found out that this was not an isolated incident. Since then, there have not been any signs or warnings to alert parkgoers that this park is not in a good neighborhood.
