I really enjoyed my walk around discovery Park. It was a bonus having a full moon to admirer as I walked. You can walk around the entire park or you could walk along the lakes as well. They have volleyball, basketball, several fields, patios to gather for birthday party’s . Watching the ducks on the lake is always enjoyable too.

So much room for kids to explore!The hills and changes in elevation make for a fun experience, while also giving a bit of separation between yourself and others.Plenty of room for fishing.Very family-oriented.A few ramadas.Basketball courts.Soccer fields.Swings.Bright lights at night!

Great open park. The playground area is small, and near a pond, so if you have kids you need to keep a close eye on them. Great for sports, picnics, gatherings.

Review №59

It is just so beautiful!! A most while having visits. Enormous for a hike and conversations :) you can also sit and watch a sunset on the top near the houses. The view is just a dream. You can watch animals and also the two colors of the water meeting at that point. Great for pictures at the tree. Hikers and runners all along with good vibes. Be aware parking is at the opposite point of the lighthouse. Parking there is just for workers and it is very limited. There are no restrooms there but very near going back uphill. In winter, easy to find but in summer, vegetation grows. Look for the sign ;)

Initially this park was busy but it has calmed down since opening. There is so much to do for a vast array of ages and abilities! It is a modern up to date park with solar benches to charge your phones and dyson hand dryers! Very clean and entertaining! There is not a lot of shade if you’re just watching your kids and sitting there so be prepared with hats or sun umbrellas.

Discovery Park is an unexpected find on the outskirts of they quiet town of Safford, Arizona. The grounds are beautifully landscaped so its a pleasure just to go there and walk around. They have facilities for groups of various sizes so you can bring a small group or plan the entire family reunion. Their observatory boasts the ability to climb up to view or watch in air-conditioned comfort from a comfortable room below. They have a museum of native pottery and information. And they have a shuttle ride that is much the same as weve enjoyed at Epcot Center. Its a great place to spend a few minutes or a few hours at any time of the year.

Visited this park for the first time today on a whim. It was very pleasant, kids and parents playing without technology, skateboarders teaching others, a pick up volleyball game. Everyone was very friendly, speaking to strangers and joining together. Not something we see very often.

Great place with plenty of areas for all ages. The have ponds you can fish in. They have multiple fields for all kinds of sports. They have alot of shaded gazebos for BBQs. They have a volleyball area, a basketball court, a playground, public bathrooms, plenty of lighting for all times of the day, plenty of regularly cleaned wast bins and plenty of parking. They have plenty of walk ways. Seen people flying rc planes there, playing all kinds of sports, riding bikes, skateboards, scooters, walking their dogs, fishing, family events and just having a good time.

Great park with various sports capabilities (such as basketball courts, volleyball area, etc.), a playground for kids & areas to fish (provided you have a fishing license). A smaller park feel and enjoyable to get some exercise or just a casual stroll.
