I really like coming to this park. Its not too big but yet not too small. Ive never had any issues with aggressive animals, bad kids or anything. The playground is fit for a small group of kids. Not dangerous at all for kids to play. I come here to sit and read my book in my car or just for some quiet time to clear my mind. Walking the track is calming as well. Good place to chill out.

Nice little park for kids (not baby/toddlers due to toy availability). Basketball hoops, large open field with a track around it, bbq pits & covered table area. Also a swing set.

With covid-19 virus causing A disruption of every normal facet of life although the field team like a great place to be I was uneasy about having other people or myself add to the spread of the virus by heading out on the Playfield on the day I visited however I saw many folks are enjoying their day now its time has passed I realized I can do my part by simply wearing a mask to prevent the spread of the Cove in virus and I think its a wonderful Park I will return soon

A public county park should have operational and open bathrooms. All bathrooms were closed due to weather. What!?! There were four people using the basketball courts. I dont think weather was an issue that day. We need to support our communities infinitely better. The grounds are 3 to 4 star but without bathrooms, forget it.

From Crystals Coffee Stand the best coffee stand ever... They care about you as much as the coffee they make for you. They really care if you actually like the product... They are on the Portland exit off 512 freeway.

This is a nice little park. There usually arent a ton of people,making it great for this social distancing that we are faced with.

Wonderful place for all types of events, had our sons 2nd Birthday here and it was Awesome but my only complaint is that I wish the city of Midland or Tacoma would take good care of the park like fixing the baseball field and the tennis courts but other then that its one of our favorite parks to go to.

Its a great little park to get exercise at. Has a nice little BBQ area and picnic area to eat at. Has a big well kept play field. Also has a couple basketball hoops to have games at. All in all it is a good park to visit but not after dusk as it is closed at that time and they will crack down on you for being there after dusk.

Has bbq on site. A 1/3 mile track encircles the playfield. There are a couple basket ball hoop and a tennis court. The play toys are good for kids. Only downside is there no water feature on hot days.

Love this park, big enough to spread out but small enough that its easy to visit with other community members if you want to.

Great playing field, great playground, covered picnic area, bathrooms (which are closed during the winter), bbq pits, basketball courts, tennis courts and a 1/3 of a mile gravel running track. This park has trees that are spread on the out line of the park so they dont interfere with your events. This park is used very well during spring to fall.

Review №28

It has a big toy, run down tennis court, and basketball court, overgrown baseball diamond, and a fairly decent 1/3rd mile path surrounding. There are bbq grills and a covered area. A lot of unsavory people like to frequent this park especially in the later operating hours. Fear of needles exists. The big toy is nice however. Big grind for soccer, kites, picnics, etc.

️ Nice little park. Has a decent play area and Ive seen a lot of families or groups having BBQs and get togethers here. Surprisingly clean. Has nice large grassy field that walkers & joggers often utilize the perimeter of. Shaded areas for chilling with a book, ect. I take my dog here who would definitely give it 5 stars for its sniff-a-bility...
