This park is under normal covid free life is usually full of friends for your kiddos to play with. It is clean and in a nice neighborhood. It has shade and seating, I am pretty sure it has a bathroom but we havent had to use it. One bad thing was last week I went and we were literally trying to play but the bees were super aggressive and literally chasing us and some other families. All of us left but I am willing to bet that they have. Already addressed this issue. Definitely give it a try!

Still has the wasp nest in the bricks surrounding the tree that separates the two swing sets-- that has been a problem for more than 5 years! My daughter was stung and wasps dont want to let go. If you avoid that area, the tennis courts are fine. Nice play equipment for a variety of ages of children. Ample area to set up a blanket on the ground or eat at the picnic tables.

Great place for a family picnic, nice playground for the kids, a closed in pavilion to set up food, and lots of space for yard games! They have many picnic tables and an abundance of trees for shade.

This place is my child hood park ever since I was kid I would always come here for a great time. Now that Im old enough Im looking forward to having kids of my own and taking them to the same place I had fun when I was kid. I never had any issues being here or will I ever.
