Beautiful place to hike. We took the dogs and they loved it! Keep them on a leash!

I love the park. I go there regularly to run or do body weight workouts. Its clean, open, and theres a lot of regulars that are friendly. The sidewalk path around the outer loop is about 3/4 of a mile, so 3 or 4 good laps will do you fine. Theres also convenient access to the regional trail right there if you want more of a nature experience. The dog park is large and well maintained. Overall, its a great place to get out and spend some time.

Great park to walk laps around! I love that they added a dog park section. The views are nice and it is pretty well maintained. There are trails connected to it and includes a nature center. Fishing is allowed in Willow Springs Pond.

Nice place. A lot to do. Courts for basketball and playgrounds. Further back is a nice quiet trail that follows the creek. Great for a quick hike or job. The geese tend to overrun the basketball court.

Plenty of room for all activities! 5+ gazebos (ranging in size) bathrooms... plenty of sun & plenty of shade under the trees! There is a nice concrete path that leads around the whole park & pond! Also a basket ball court, volleyball pit, neighborhood garden & dogpark! Oh and of course the big kids & little kids playgrounds!

Nice park to have a nice jog or to have a picnic. Space is big enough to play soccer or football.

This is a nice place for a walk, or to take your dog, or for a bike ride. There is an off leash dog area and a wide open space for bike riding. There is a nice pond with a walking trail around it too that is great for short walks. There is also a kid friendly play area with slides and a jungle gym. Overall a great place to get outdoors and enjoy some sunshine with.

One of my favorite spots close to the Springs. Great shade in the summer and plenty of beach space to lay out and the river is shallow enough to walk through. Great time with family and dogs.

Great little area to hang out and fish. Theres a playground for the kids to play on. There are gazeebos for get together. There is a trail to walk or run and areas to fish. There are restrooms but theyre about as clean as you can expect at a park. Weve seen a lot of really fat squirrels there too Someones definitely feeding those suckers. Theyre pretty plump.and happy looking and if youre not careful theyll actually sneak right up on you when you least expect it. There are sometimes some sketchy people hanging out there especially in the wooded area near the overpass but we have never had any issues. Lots of kids and families.

Its a great place to walk and even though there are signs that says dogs must be on a leash people still disobey the rules. I just wish people would listen. I dont know if your dog is harmless as they charge towards me. Use the dog park!

Very nice place. It was peaceful and pretty quiet when we went. You can hear birds constantly. The creek was really relaxing to watch. The restrooms in the center were very clean.

This park has just about everything you need. The parking lots are huge with wheelchair access. The playground is well maintained with wood chips. There is something for all ages to play on or with. Near the playground is a sand volleyball court and bathrooms. The duck pond has mostly geese but the path is paved. Dont forget feed with bird seed NOT bread.

Beautiful big park. Nature reserve, playground several big pavilions, volleyball court with sand, dog park, pond and ducks. We had a picnic here and there were a LOT of bees, so there is that. Happy the bees are thriving here, but it was difficult to eat among a swarm of bees.

Review №73

A little too crowded now with the growth of the town and expansion of roads. Not really my favorite place anymore as it used to be. Still, there is a really nice pond with wildlife and a dog park if thats something youre looking for. A small park and basketball court. Several pavilions with picnic tables. The trails are always nice to walk when it gets a little crowded at the park. Still a nice setting with a lot of nature around. Hopefully that continues to remain preserved.

Fountain Creek regional Park is a wetland nestled between interstate 25 and highway 85. Its quite the oasis for birds and other wildlife. The nature center trail loops through ponds, marshes, Meadows, and Cottonwood woodlands. Herons fish here and red-winged blackbirds nest in the cattails. The knowledgeable staff provide learning opportunities for all ages through guided hikes, programs, and special events.
