Good for what it is and toys are ok for older kids who like monkey bars and a couple small slides. Sketchy at night. There was a couple of tents and potentially homeless people smoking something in the undercover cabin area.

I Like all Sea-beck pizza & ale houses but I would have to say, Port Orchard is still my favorite. It would make me happy to see a Sea-beck pizza place in Tacoma. (Maybe Someday)

Ive lived near this park for 8 years and the maintenance of this park and its very obvious that its not a priority to Metroparks. The stone covered area is used only by young people for smoking. The lawn sprinkled with cigarette butts and bottle caps. I would love to see it updated as my children are still young and the park a novelty but they always ask me NOT to go to Lincoln Park.

Great playground to do pullups during the pandemic because the gyms are closed.

Nice walking, basketball and baseball fun.

Review №16

Nice park in honor of President Lincoln, but the reason I put 4 stars is because in summer the grass at the end of park is higher than usual and sometimes this grass can scratch your feet when you are walking!

Nice park and view but the grass areas of the outfields are kind of muddy, or like walking on a grass covered bogg, stopped here to fly my drone, good views of the inlet.

Broken glass and trash in the childs play area. Someone drove their car down the walking path while I was there. I do not recommend this park for children its fine for walking dogs though.

Not to bad nice little park.

Great park. Need signs around perimeter of park requiring dogs to be on leash. Too many dogs off leash with no enforcement or clear leash signage as you enter park.

Da
Review №28

Lots of teens doing and selling drugs here. The park itself is great.

Cute little park. We went here after church and made some friends. Not a day spending park, but definitely a good place to stop and have some fun.

Nice park with a good play ground and basketball hoops.. lots of homeless people hanging around but they keep to themselves and not a bother.

Me and my son love going to this park and watching the fairies while he swings theres also a bike trail along the water with rest areas and benches and barbecues and fire pits with covered areas and the chin it is great for birthdays or going rollerblading

St
Review №37

Its a great place to have family time and even a picnic. Check it out

Ch
Review №38

Nice and quiet park, minimal parking. Only enough parking for two vehicles, and it is handicapped parking only. Everyone else must park on the street or go elsewhere. I would suggest going to Wapato Park rather than going to this one.

Very peaceful park on the south side. Seating is the grass which is probably why its peaceful.

St
Review №42

Simple, quiet, wide open park.

Ch

Parking is limited and homeless people and couples fighting but still had fun.

Review №44

A lovely local park. The biggest challenge is parking. Expect to need to walk a quarter mile from your car to where you want to go in the park.

Ca
Review №45

Nice small park with plenty of room, but very dirty, lots of garbage and bathrooms were locked despite it being open hours. Son still enjoyed running around and playing on swings though

Has a kids playground, baseball, basketball, but too small for a good walk unless you do many laps. Good for walking your dog.

Review №56

Pretty lame. A few toys for the kiddies, but HEAVY police presence. Super small with widely spaced apart trees. Better off going and eating/shopping in that little Asion District on 38th. The Vein Dong restuarant will blow your mind.

Great place to play, walk the dog day or night, I walk here at night and feel 100% safe, with my pit bull. My son loves the spinning toys, theres a big Christmas tree shaped one that holds a couple dozen kids!

Review №77

I AM VERY VERY FOND OF THIS PLACE FOR IT HOLDS A LOT OF VERY GOOD MEMORIES FOR ME AND MY HUSBAND. THE ONLY THING I HAVE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT IS THAT THERES BEEN A FEW TIMES WHEN IVE BEEN THERE OR JUST EVEN PASSING THRU THERE AND HAVE HAD TO USE THE BATHROOM VERY BADLY BUT, THEY WERE CLOSED. THE AREA MAY NOT BE ALL THAT GREAT AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY ARE WORRIED ABOUT DRUGGIES AND THE HOMELESS. I STILL THINK THEY SHOULD KEEP PARK BATHROOMS OPEN YEAR ROUND. JUST DO HOW THEY ARE ALREADY DOING IT NOW OPEN AND CLOSE THEM AT A CERTAIN TIME AS WELL AS KEEP PATROLLING THE PARKS FREQUENTLY AS WELL AS CHECKING THE BATHROOMS FROM TIME TO TIME MAKING SURE THAT THEY AINT GOT PEOPLE USING THEN INAPPROPRIATELY OR POSSIBLY EVEN CAMPING OUT IN THEM. I MEANS PEOPLE VISIT THE PARKS ALL YEAR ROUND AND PEOPLE AFTER GONNA HAVE TO USE THE RESTROOM. THERES BARELY ANY PUBLIC BATHROOMS AROUND ANYMORE WHICH IS RIDICULOUS. AT LEAST PUT SOME PORTA POTTIES AROUND TOWN IF NO PUBLIC RESTROOM CUZ WHERE ELSE IS SOMEBODY GOIN TO GO?

I suppose if your from that side of town its its alright but I come from a more affluent part of the County so it seems a little sketch to me. I wouldnt go there myself.

Review №83

This park is very spacious and had several areas to play. There is a huge basketball court, play area, restrooms a covered picnic area and lits of room to run around. Located off Yakima, the park was very peaceful.

Small park with a few pieces of equipment in the play area.Theres a covered area for hosting a birthday party or other party but, most of the times Ive been, its smelled like urine.Quite a few times Ive been to the area in the afternoon or evening, there was a homeless person or two standing near the playground and once, there was a group near the covered area and they were cursing loudly, drinking and smoking weed.At other times, the park is lovely and green and empty with several large trees for dogs and kids to explore. Theres also a basketball area for people to use and thats generally pretty busy when the weather is nice.The park is adjacent to Lincoln High School with their football field down a bramble-filled hill. Im not sure if theres a way to get into the field (if youre wanting to jog on their track when its empty) but I havent seen any obvious foot paths.The park is great for letting dogs investigate or for supervised visits for kids to play or to play some games of basketball. Just keep an eye out for used needles around the covered area.
