The layout of the playground area is unique, it’s a rectangular strip along the edge of the park along Florence Ave, but I think you would be able to see kids in different areas at the same time if you place yourself strategically :) There are a few play structures geared toward taller, climbing children and a smaller play area geared toward shorter people.There are many park benches spread throughout the area and lots of picnic tables.Theres a tire swing, two regular swings and two bucket swings.There are bike racks by the basketball areaAccording to the city’s website: the only location in Evanston that has a lighted basketball court is Mason Park!Basketball: 3 Full Courts and 1 Half CourtTennis: 2 CourtsBaseball/Softball and Soccer/Football: 1 field eachBathroom: Yes!Parking is on the street and can be tough to find because of driveways.
I love to go there and just chill and play some of my sports games. However I would like to find out how to get someone to dump the garbage cans on a regular basis. Theyre usually running out all over around the garbage can.
Great local park.
Backboard on the tennis courts. Beware of parking around the park on cleaning day which is 3rd Wednesday of the month from 12pm - 4pm else youll get a ticket for $75.
While having a small park, basketball court, tennis court, and soccer field, it has no public bathroom. Its park is small and a little dirty. It is a good place for outdoor sports in the summer but I wouldnt spend too much time there.
This is VERY close to my favorite playground Penny Park, but Penny is lacking 2-3 things that I really like about Mason Park. Mason is VERY well shaded and a blessing on a hot day second, with less obstructions you can see what your kid is up to at a distance. Lastly since the other park is more popular you will find a more comfortavle amount of children on a day when Penny park might have 50+ kids. I visit here once per every two visits to Penny since I live so close.
The surface is coming off the tennis courts making them unplayable and a fall risk. The hitting wall is fine, but moving more than one step to hit the ball is dangerous.
Great park with tennis courts and a playground. The grass is in great condition.
Great balance of open space, kids play structures and sports facilities in an efficient space. We are there multiple days a week!
Great, not too crowded!!!!
Love that, every time I go, there is an open rim.
Really big park. Bigger is better. They have bathrooms (solo ones) and water fountains.
Baseball field dries quickly, but ends up with a couple muddy spots
Kinda dirty and poorly lit at night time
Good place to make snowman wit children
Nice park, I go there with my two kids, I like it because one of my kids can be at the playground, while the older one can play basketball.
The basketball courts have lights, there are bathrooms, water fountains, a running track, baseball diamond, soccer field and three play structures
Nice park
Cute park
