Really beautiful park. It feels like you are in the middle of a forest even though you are actually right in the city. I went geocaching here and there were 5 stops to make.

The park has a nice crushed stone trail and a restful area to look out over a pond on the property.

First time going to this park and was pretty impressed by how everything there was. The trail and the little water place in the back was so clean and nice. I love grand rapids and how we have so many nature trails around the city. Very impressed with this place and will be coming back.

Nice, serene pathway connecting Ball and Perkins. The pathway also leads to a small pond tucked back in the woods. A beautiful place to connect with nature without having to leave the city.

I love the path and the privacy and the nature in the city and the dogs love the park and I love the benches.

Good hiking, trails in good shape. Not much elevation to worry about. Have to do laps if you want some significant steps.

Nice, short (1/2 mile) walking trail with a community garden. There is an overlook at a marsh with some benches. Only one picnic table at the East end. Nice to have the green space in town!

Nicely kept path in a beautiful plot of woods. It could stand to have another path or two, even if they are less developed. Overall a great place for a short walk.

You are likely to see deer or turkeys either early, early morning or around sunset. The park is just a trail that connects Perkins and Ball. Theres a spur leading to the pond where theres a little platform and a couple benches are scattered about should you want to sit a spell.
