I wouldn’t recommend anyone to bring their children here. Although the pool area is ok, the rest needs some serious TLC! First off the play area is always full of poop, from the geese and the homeless and addict sleep there so you can imagine what types of things are left laying around on ground that could potentially harm kids and/ or adults. I understand that everyone needs some where to but it needs a major clean up.

Clear path, level 2 walk because of small hills, some roots and rocks. But a very relaxing place to enjoy a nature walk. People were swimming and Id imagine some of the spots are good for fishing too.

I love the atmosphere just kids and parents running through the sprinklers. This is my second visit in less then a week. Met up with the same people. The kids were dumping cups of water on me while I spoke with their parents. I will go back asap!

This park was fun when Rebecca Lobo was playing for UConn and the recreational center was well up kept.. But now.. Sweet Jesus I can’t walk 10 feet in any direction without finding a used needle on the ground.. pretty sad.. avoid this area at all costs

There is a guy there, I think he said Bob, that works the pool . He took some time to help my daughter with her swimming. She was trying and he recognized that. Nice to see Hartford actually has employees that care that much and have a passion for what they do. Not just someone collecting a paycheck.

Great for a walk or run. Anything you can do outside, this is a great option for large group get togethers. The parking lot is kind of shady. Guys chilling in their cars smoking weed and guys just hanging out with their dirt bikes. Other than that, its nice.

The most DANGEROUS play ground i have ever seen. Just took my 3 yr old there and there is missing slides with sharp metal posts sticking up out of the ground, broken plexiglass sticking out of the playground... I cant even remember it all because there was so much wrong. ..omg someone needs to shut this down
