This place has a nice childrens play area, but it is filthy and needs lawn maintenance. Needs some clean up for sure. I would suggest bringing insect repellant as well as the play area is located next to a lot of brush and plant growth. Watch out for the uncovered drainage basin.

Very trashy & dirty. Not well maintained at all; even if it were there are few places to enjoy sitying, resting or relaxing. Went to eat here during my lunch break & was sadly disappointed.

The perfect place for the kids to have some fun and parents can relax at the picnic tables in the shade.

Public bathrooms that arent locked...but they are not the cleanest...also not the worst! There are tables that are shaded and my kids love this park. Its on the road behind the fire station.

I like this park, it could use a bit of cleaning work but its very quiet and isolated away from people. Some of the equipment seems dangerous for kids to use but I like that its different than your average park. I suggest checking this place out.

Decent park for field games, though recently the fields arent in great condition. There isnt enough parking for the space however.

Very isolated, came at 4, there was a car full of young white guys hot boxing their car, a few minutes later they left and some more young white adults came by, to smoke and play rap music on a boombox right on the picnic tables overlooking the playground. Always wanted my toddlers to learn music and healthy habits. The park itself is nice but basically abandoned. In the hour we were here only one other family showed up.

Not busy. Good park for older kids. Took my 2 year old and had fun on the swings and seesaw but most of the equipment is probably for elementary school age children. Most equipment is unique, stuff you dont see a lot of.

Fun toys for the kids to play on. We visited on Saturday and all the bathrooms were locked. Soccer fields locked too. Clean and plenty of parking.

The playground is nice but theres trash in the parking lot, and the pavillion area smells like piss

Review №29

Would have gave it 5 stars but some equipment was broken and made it more dangerous and its designed for slightly older children than my 5 year old. Its also hidden and out of the way. Still a pretty good park.

You can pay for feild lights that can cover around 4 full soccer fields. The soil is soft and great for all sports. The water does tent to pool in areas after heavy rain, but what field doesnt.

Finally fixed the fields. Could use more parking and better facilities.

Review №32

An okay park. You get people hanging out in the back of the parking lot sometimes and it made me a bit uncomfortable for my wife to go here alone. That being said, we never had any problems. The equipment is in great shape and nothing super dangerous for kids to get hurt on.

Kids play area is good. The soccer fields are in very bad shape though.

Gosh, I guess the concept of park in America, the devils land where everything is private, individualized and different from where I come from Iran. Just read the review for a guy who said there are always guys hanging out in the back of park, and that makes his wife uncomfortable. That is what a park is, at least outside America. People go to park to chill, sleep, hang out, enjoy their times, play sport and feel free, and unless they do anything harmful to others, they should be comfortable. If youre paranoid about people always wanting to assault you or hurt you (oh, and obviously the only one who can do that are the homeless people in bad clothes, or blacks in rugged clothes) dont go to a park. Instead try going to a doctor. The worst part is, you being sick, trying to put this idea into your childrens minds too. I really think people should be examed before having the privilege of having children.

Best field and cleanest field Jax hands down! You usually have to worry about small holes in the field, but not this place. I play in an ultimate frisbee league every Friday here.
