Very nice park. We enjoyed our pizza that we got from Hall Street Bakery just two blocks away under the pavilion at MLK Park. We found the park to be clean and well-maintained, with fun playground equipment and a public pool (closed for Covid, but looks nice). Though not crowded, there were other individuals and families enjoying the park, too. The playground has lots of shade, which we appreciated.

Great Park! It is huge and there are a lot of things to do great basketball and tennis courts and more. The city does a nice job maintaining the grounds.

I grew up across the street from this park. Its NOT the same. No football field, No kiddies pool. No 4 square or horse shoes. Tether ball is gone and the Basketball courts, Baseball diamonds and tennis courts have been moved.Park has lost its luster. :( sad

For a smaller park this one is pretty decent. It has a splash pad for summer time and is pretty well kept.

Not a bad place to play basketball, but lock your stuff up or keep it close by. My buddy got his phone stolen out of his bag by some punk kids...

MLK Park, what can I say about this place. I have alot of great memories at this place... and Im steady forging new memories at this place with my children... So like its a park.... We all got bad stuff and good stuff to tell about this place if you live and grew up in Da Gunz. So just take it with a grain of salt.

Need more programs. Great place to take youth of all ages, with the amenities that are available. Could not have a better name for a park.

Its community based, I enjoy spending time there swimming, watching the children on the playground. Free concerts, and the overall ambience of just relaxing there. Whatever sport you fancy you can do there (weather permitting).

That park is for everyone, and when i say everyone, i mean any and every body that loves the outdoors. Back than it was no fun because of crazy folks trying to rule over but my first time back there since GRADE school, it have brought it to be better.

Dangerously-spiky Sweet Gum Tree pods litter the entire ground beneath the ill-kept childrens playground equipment.There are tennis & basketball courts, a soccer/baseball field, a neat workout ring and, a few weeks in the summer, a pool & slide open.

The park has plenty of space for basketball, tennis or just to play. The area with slides and such is a decent size and even has places that are signed with suggested workouts. There is also a public pool complete with a slide.

Review №54

The pool is lovely. $2 adults $1kids. There are 6-12life guards who are super attentive (you could nap as your kids swim!). There arent chairs, but plenty of places in the grass and around the pool to lay out. The snack bar is pitiful but cheap. Bring a dollar for each kid and they have a snack feast of cheetos, airheads, popsicles, and ice cream. It is a beautiful, huge, well-kept pool. And the people smart enough to come here reflect the blending pot if America. It is impressive.

Went swimming there a few times this summer. Every time I went there the same kids were there, getting into arguments with other children and cursing. I felt bad for the lifeguards they had to put some kids in time out from swimming and a cop even showed up.

Park needs to be better taken care of. Weeds everywhere, pool house needs painting inside, grass dieing. Is it because, it is a inner city park?

First time at the pool with my four kids 8 and under. So my 8 and 6 year old deside to go jump of the diving board and of course my 4 year old wants to follow suit. So I ask the life guard working the section if my son can jump with his arm/chest flotation devise. He says no because he cant swim and no one is allowed in the pool while people jump. So a few minutes later the lifeguards switch posts and I ask the new one if my 4 year old can jump off the diving board. She says YES ! As long as he wears a flotation vest. Sweet! So the kids jump for about an hour. Suddenly a lifeguard superviser comes over and tells everyone that no one under 10 years old are allowed to jump of the diving board !!! What !?! Since this is my first time there I got nothing to go by. Then a mom watching her daughter jump says to the superviser that her girls ages 5, 8 have been using the diving board since the pool opened over a month ago and now your going to tell me they cant jump !!! Are you kidding me ! This place is a joke !!! The pool served its purpose but very poorly managed.
