Great family oriented park. Playground isnt the cleanest, but neither are my children... Splash pad is fun and the kids love it. Playground has lots of fun things for kids off all ages, even some good old school equipment. Bring some frisbees as well because theres some great open space as well. Tables and large trees nice for lunch too.

What an awesome little park with a splash pad, great playground, tennis courts, basketball court, and place to hammock! Great getaway in the middle of the city!

Great playground for kids and it also has a bike repair station. My only complaint is that the middle section is wide open with no tree coverage and seating is fairly limited to certain spots in the park.

Perfect neighborhood park with a variety of terrain to explore, a great playground, splash pad, tennis courts and woods with a stream running through them. Bonus bike jumps if you can find em!

Fun for the whole family, in a peaceful area of town with nice partly wooded walks. Lots of sun and shade. From sports, sunbathing, kite flying, cooking out, park walks, hammocks, dogs, live music, and even wedding photography. The heart of east town breeds artists of all kinds. And this is only one of many great places in east Grand Rapids. Find your places and save them

Nice little park, trail, bball courts, field, baseball, play ground and plenty of room for social distance and safe fun. Can get a little dirty at times

Great peaceful serene park, nice woods and a small creek. Just blocks away from the bustle of Wealthy and Lake. Trails, tennis courts, and a playground too.

Very well maintained. Kid loved the playground.

Beautiful. We sat on the stairs and ate lunch.

Its the parkiest park of all the parks, with extra parky-goodness for good measure!

I took my grand daughter there for the toys and the splash pad.Its a great place for kids and adults.

Nice green open space downtown

Pretty nice park, has a cool play area for kids.

Very peaceful, lots of shade and a splash pad!

Nice place. Lots of college-aged students so it gets a little noisy at times.

Nice park area for little ones

Splash pad is so nice.

Love coming here and dancing in the moonlight.

Fun park! This place has a great playground. Great for kids of all ages. There is also a basketball court and some tennis courts as well. Right next to the park there is a giant field great for frisbee. Would definitely recommend checking out this park.

Wilcox park is a great place to go hang around in the forrest or go to just play spike ball or tennis.

Splash pad is nice. You can do bird watching nice quiet neighborhood.

Very nice an quite park very good equipment

There is a splash pad which is great, lots of space, good water fountains. Clean. Good, diverse area so nice to meet new people or let your kids make new friends!

Great place. Plenty of space and is almost always very quiet. Tennis courts. Water pad and playground for the kids. Good picnic area as well.

Beautiful park with a very well maintained basketball court, playground, and splash pad. Its a great place for the family. Theres even an enclosed pavilion you can rent from the city.

Nice little neighborhood park. Play equipment is pretty standard. Plenty of open space. Restrooms are ok. The only down side was the country karaoke blasting from Brienne and Taylors wedding reception (which, yes, was exactly as bad as you just imagined!) but thats likely to be a one-time problem. ;)

Hippies all overThe placeIm so confused

Ive always loved this little park, great for many different activities and the playground is spectacular!

Plenty of open spaces, tennis courts, splash pads and restrooms

Very open and grassy place. Family friendly. Great place to throw a stick around with your golden retriever, Max.

Its not luxurious, its not overly dirty, and if there is no event going on its not too populated. The location is poor, there is no good parking, and just had an old run of the mill type of atmosphere. Its not somewhere I would want to go by choice.

This is a pretty great park. The traffic that drives close to the park is in a slow speed zone and people seem conscience that they are driving close by a place where lots of kids are running around. The playground equipment was super fun for our little daughter who was having a blast at this park. We had a nice little picnic here and it was a great little haven in an area heavy on buildings but not so much on trees and nature. This is a wonderful little stop.

A great place to have a refreshing run through a splash pad and play on well kept and clean park equipment!

One of the treasures of Eastown!

The splash park and playground is nice and its kind of tucked away, its a nice little place for kids to play!

Nice and open. The only problem is that there is an occasional junkie walking around.

Nice playground Splash area in good working condition.Grounds well kept clean restrooms .A good amount of benches to sit a keep close eye on your children.Will be back to visit.

Quaint n Quiet

Pretty cool

To marry ppl

This a great park with many play structures and a splash park in warm weather. Tennis and basketball courts. Small baseball diamond. Large sweeping lawns for play or picnics. Right next to Aquinas College which has a really walkable campus. Wilcox is probably my #1 park in Grand Rapids.

I say greate time ,went with my friend there to play basketball and soccer ball.

Its a pretty nice park it has a splash pad thats open in the summer and cool park stuff

A little busy but a super nice early afternoon weather wise. Had a great nephews birthday party, there was at least one other large party occurring near the playground but still didnt feel overcrowded.

Its a beautiful park with wide open spaces a great place to take your dog or do yoga which they hold at 7 p.m. on Sundays as a group but theres always people there playing music Im getting into other festivities per say, many places to hang a hammock and some Shrubbery when you want privacy. Oh and gorgeous daffodils in the spring

Great place to enjoy the sunshine.

Wish they spent the GR City pts here like we voted for instead of cherry park.. pathetic scam for whoever is/was running the community program and parks... needs a bit of an upgrade but I still love it there!

I love this park and the neighboring people here are kind. Plus the water that little water pad which is awesome. It I really nice park

I love this park ive spent so many summers here.

Nice little park in the heart of town. I loved the splash pad idea for the kids. However, there needs to be a little more going on with the water. Just a few kids and its on overload.

Pretty lil park with some neighborhood views ️️

Great for kids of all ages and grandparents too!

Great place to hammock and relax in Grand Rapids. On of my favorite parts in the city has a playground tennis courts and nice trees for hammocks.

Nice place

There is tree.

Low key park great for any occasion

Didnt seem to have a pool (it was late though and mightve been closed; and it did have water spouts). Had everything else, though, even a water fountain that included one for your dog or for your water bottle. Theres a big geometric rope-and-metal climbing structure, and Im quite Nervous about the idea of children using it.

Great urban park!!!

Great time with granddaughter. Bathrooms were not open yet.

Great park! Always clean and the playground equipment is awesome

The playground is nice and new. I did think they would fix the bathrooms during the renovation though. They need to put down a baseball field. Right now it is just a backstop. It would also be nice if they fixed the basketball nets and fixed the sagging tennis nets.

Had An awesome time big and beautiful

Neighborhood park.

Back in the day the hippies would gather for sunday kickball and refer cigarettes. Sure you may run accross some hipsters doing vape marijuanas but not near as good as a community gathering place as it was in the old days.

The new playground equipment is awesome! Bathrooms are pretty old school. But everything else is in Tip-Top shape!

I great place to hangout and play Frisbee. There is always cool people here chilling. Some time they are tight rope walking, other times the are hamiking twenty feet in a tree. I dont recommend going here at night because it gets very scetchy in my personal experience.

We went for a birthday party and what a great venue. There is an indoor area with tables as well as outdoor. Indoor and outdoor accessable bathrooms. Great playground equipment! And a water fountain/play area in the summer!

Playground, splash pad, bathrooms, basketball courts, tennis courts, lots of green space to throw a frisbee or toss the ball around or just lay out. Trees with proper hammock spacing and wooded areas. Really a little bit of everything. Great park.

Just the best

One of my favorite parks in Grand Rapids. There are always groups of people gathering, from groups of friends, to yoga sessions, to music and trapeze artists. A great place to relax outdoors in good weather!

Wilcox... the place to go to chill during the summer. Uselly dead during the cold weather but good vibes most of the time really bad vibey people got dogwalked out of the park lol this summer so yeah good vibes only

So much better since the upgrade. A nice place to bring the family. Do not like bringing the kids when the church overtakes the playground for their recess.

Its a great place to chill out, hang with friends or even go there by YOUR self.

Grew up playing at the park and now my family from a new generation clay there it is awesome during the day

Cool new hammock area!

Cute park.

Great park. Not any toys for kids but a lovely place to sit after the bars close and have a conversation. Be careful of people sleeping in the bushes though.

Surrounded by shade trees with plenty of open space for children to run, public tennis courts and a fantastic playground. This park is awesome and walkable from Fulton heights and eastown.

I love the two distinct parts is this park. There play area for the kids and around the bend is a great spot for picnics, hammocking, drum circles, shade for naps and great people!

John is a fatshit. Stay away. Otherwise, chill.

This is my favorite park in GR. Has a splash pad, its shady, lots of open green space to play in. Bathrooms could definitely use an upgrade though!

Pretty good park. Lots of open space. Lacking basketball and tennis courts, but they’re there

Good vibes, hippy haven, good place to stumble across some top shelf meds

Cute little park in the midst of a neighborhood. Small community building and a couple pavilions, good playground area

You can bring your own barbeque and beer until dusk. What more do you need?

Nice place for dog :)

Great I am big into relic hunting and I found a bullet casing from 1914.

Nice park, if you time your visit not to coincide with the druggies.

A quite relaxing park hidden just out of site from the city

Great park for hanging out, playing sports, or watching the kids on the playground.

Hippies and yuppies oh my.

Great place to hang out and play music and make new friends.

Great place. Fun for the whole family :)

Extraordinary individuals gather together and have a sense of freedom . it is refreshing.

Good area. Lots of room, and it has been recently renovated.

Eastown wouldnt be eastown without wilcox

Great for Pokémon Go, hammocking, a playground for children, splash pad, tennis, baseball diamond, basketball court, pavilion. The only thing missing is a dog run!

I grew up here.

Nice park, very cool location for cyclocross racing.

Nice park.
