Perfect place for everything except swimming because its sewer water and the water is super brown and dirty but this PLACE is super clean with great trails. You can go exercise hiking fishing. Bring your kids here or have family events or cook outs. Amazing animals and birds here. Very put in the open so as safe as can be as a park. You can do your sports here as well like skate boarding was really good because theres so many straight paths that end in curves with up hills And downhills

Nice park...historical..very quiet

Always clean & peaceful (when I go there). Great place to gather your thoughts under pristine nature. The pond usually has a fountain pluming and we love to catch the changing seasons in the secret garden. Stop and smell the roses!

Well cared for park just outside of the city of Wilmington. Nice benches, views, adequate parking, bike trail, and porta-potties. Great for bird watching (water foul) also.

Had an excellent time at this zoo. The path is straight forward and you see everything twice. They had different staff teaching about animals throughout the day and the goat petting pen was fun for the kids. Some of the animals were not out but it was about mid day. Park was clean and a good deal for admission. Only spent about 1.5 hours here too.

So many fun little things to do and a beautiful place to walk around!

Awesome here. Saw a bunch of deer. Fishing & swimming & sitting by the river highly recommended.

A very well maintained park with lots of history, trails, fun stuff to do and see. Different from the other state parks with the partial urban setting, but all in all a great park. Highly recommend visiting Wilmington State Park and all its sub-locations.

Great trial for hiking, the route was clear and safe. Kid friendly too. Pleasant environment.

Beautiful park, great fields and walking areas, very well maintained

Nice cool river, with artificial falls and walkways for hiking.

Delaware is a beautiful state and Wilmington State Parks has really taken pains to maintain and protect Delawares natural wonder. DONT SKIP DELAWARE.

I got a great tour of beautiful parts of Wilmington, including rocky streams, by a great local resident.

My husband and I secret spot!!! Love to walk and talk.

One of the most beautiful parks in Northern Wilmington, Delaware.

I wasnt at that park I drive by it but I didnt see parking near there fyi. Be aware

Very nice despite almost being attackes by geese :-)!!

It was very sunny this day end peaceful with everything going on and theres nothing to do I went there I love to hear the birds chirp and see the little waterfall it was nice

Brandywine Park is a really nice Urban park that is part of the Delaware Greenway. It runs into Alapocas Woods which is another beautiful park. Nestled along the Brandywine River the park boasts paved walking tracks, shaded picnic gardens, a rose garden, and the Brandywine Zoo. It also hosts events such as the Brandywine Arts Festival every September.

Beautiful state parks in Delaware with a variety of hiking trails and so beautiful to go to in the fall!

Great place to take the dogs!

Not crowded, beautiful scenery, plenty of room for kids to let loose and run, Can-do-playground is awesome!

Brandywine great place to unwind.

My man and I love visiting to relax and enjoy Gods beautiful creatures. More geese and various types of ducks around.

Great Spot to get away.

Better signage for parking would be helpful especially during construction

These parks are absolutely gorgeous. You can take it easy and do a shorter trail or go full on hiking in these woods or anything in between and each time see something new and beautiful.

Beautiful facility. Well kept. Fun time for the kids.

Great place to walk around and enjoy nature. A decent little zoo for children.

Very nice park. Clean, Quiet, Beautiful

Its a truly spectacular place to spend a day!

Visited the Wilmington Zoo and surrounding Park area. Very scenic with lots of greenery and rivers. A very nice place to visit. Really nice eating establishments with menus offering new and delicious flavor combinations. Also visited the Delaware Art Museum. Very nice, lots of art on the grounds of the museum. Really pleasant place to visit!

My favorite park since my young age

This outing was perfect for my 2 year old. She wanted to go to the zoo. She did not want to leave. As we walked back to the car she she says, Mommy, I want to go to the river. I obliged. It was a peaceful outing.

Its beautiful down there

I always enjoy a walk in the park.

I have visited here with family to have some fun and its a perfect place for outing and spend quality time with your loved ones. The atmosphere was very fresh and calm. I feel happy after visit here. Nice place

The Brandywine Zoo is very small. Its not worth the $7 admission fee

Great way to excised

Beautiful park with very nice playground. Clean and well maintained turf, equipment and rest facilities.

BRANDYWINE CREEK, TABLES, GOOD LOCATION

This is a great Park along the Brandywine River in Downtown Wilmington, theres many beautiful spots and also connected to this park is the Brandywine, or Wilmington Zoo. a nice little Zoo and a great for a walk for older people or the handicapped or young children!

All the parks are great!! My favorite is the stretch from Rockford Park, down Kentmere Pkwy past the art museum, along the banks of the Brandywine River and paper mill aqueducts, to Monkey Hill and the Brandywine Zoo. Lots of different terrain and scenery throughout the parks keeps it from getting boring, I feel like Im always spotting new and interesting stuff. Tennis/basketball courts, baseball diamonds, at least one 5K cross country course, playgrounds, off-leash dog parks, hiking/biking trails, sledding hills, zoo (pretty extensive for how small it is!), etc etc...You name it, the Wilmington parks have it.

Beautiful first time here

Loved the place for the zoo and the river walk.

Saw my friends band play there.

Clean And Peaceful Loved The Atmosphere

Love Rockford Park! Still havent gone up on the Tower and Ive lived here 21 years.

I love taking my kids to the Can-Do park! Its clean and safe. Always plenty of parking.

Love this area. Besides being beautiful its a vibrant with people walking jogging biking walking dogs

Lots of activities,good people, well kept

Took my 3 yr old grandson to the Can Do Park there. What an amazing, educational, and just all-around fun place for the kids. They have a playground area complete with multiple rock-wall climbing areas, sliding boards, etc., and interactive electeonic educational stations, and small telescopes to see the beautiful surrounding gardens, etc.; all with the soft rubber flooring throughout all play areas, and a great big sandbox complete with beach toys and articulating arm scoops that let the kids feel like their working with construction trucks!I promise the kids up to 10 will LOVE it; worth the trip and ITS FREE OF CHARGE!!!

Superb place to walk, sit and enjoy party celebrations with your friends....Such a great place to spend some time!!!

Great place to take a casual stroll or a brisk walk. Always fun for the kids too.

Not aloud to barbecue there anymore I dont think but,its still a good park to chill at and, reminisce with some old time friends.

So many great parks in the Wilmington area the annual pass is well worth it.

The zoo itself is small but super cute!

Took a few after wedding pictures around here and the waterfalls/fountains were nice backdrops. Upkept pretty well

Beautiful and peaceful walk

The most extensive varieties of flowers, especially orchids, chrysanthimums and the Japanese installations were exotic.

One of the best places to go for your morning walk! Love this park!

A bit of green in the city. Easy parking.

A Historical society and History in the making.

We just visited Brandywine state creek park and it was great. They have walking trails great hills to hike and they also gave bike paths as well. The crown and glory is the creek itself my kids, wife and I tubes down the Brandywine and was so relaxing. This is the true definition of lazy river.

Beautiful park. Perfect for the kids!

Great park. There is a ton of space to play in the grass of you want like soccer, kickball, etc. There is a pavilion available if youd like but they have a good amount of picnic tables placed all around to be able to eat. Theres bathrooms available with family bathrooms as well, and there is also a drink vending machine. The playground itself is awesome. Its called the Can-Do playground, I believe it was made for kids with autism and such to help them. There are a couple different jungle gym sets (I think thats what they are called) for kids to play on, with multiple slides on each one and one has a slide in it to go from one level to the next. There is also little interactive setups on the gym sets for the kids to play with and learn like one teaches about different types of water (rivers, storms, things like that) one is a car setup they can do plus others. They have a huge sand pit even for the kids where you can bring your own toys to dig and mess around with but they also have claws they can sit on and dig with. Theres even all different kinds of swings for kids with different needs but they also have swings where a parent can swing with their kid at the same time. Theres a little set up where the kids can climb up one set thats made to look like trees even, plus a few more things here to play with. This playground is absolutely amazing and my kids love it, heck I might love it even more lol. My son has autism and just cant get enough of this place and all things he can mess around with and run around on. I know this is an extremely long post but I cant say enough good things about this place I highly recommend it for everyone.

Beautiful park and amazing views

Beautiful walk. Because of the rain, Rapids were high & fun. Took a friend who needed a mental health break! We all need a checkup from the neckup!

Beautiful park

It was nice but very small, and all the animals were either hiding or sleeping. When the zoo first opened.Except the goats in the petting area and the eagles.

I love the peace and quiet, the view and the sound of the water. A nice place to take a walk with the kids, dog or love ones

A lot of areas to set up for outdoor events. Kids were entertained with the zoo right a crossed the street. Less than .5 mile away up the cobblestone road it’s a park for the kids. Will go again.

Loved it here.

Great park. Love the waterfall and dam. Very peaceful.

Loved the Flower Festival today. Lots of vendors for food, jewelry, and so much more. Will attend next year.

Such Beauty and Splendor on our bike ride. Spent time in the rose garden also and the fragrances were so wonderful!

Beautiful park!

Beautiful parks but not enough parking!!!

Rather tranquil & serene. Get place for relaxing & getting away.

Beautiful park plus zoo.

Had an excellent time at this park last week with my loved ones and I just loved it.

This park is so magical!! I grew up blocks away from here. I could walk down the street and come make up imaginative games on the banks of the Brandywine River. The rose garden is beautiful and they have a lady bug release party there every year. The architecture of the huge fountain is historical.The Brandywine Zoo is literally across the road from the park. And you can drive an old, climbing, cobblestone road thats locally known as Monkey Hill to a pretty cool playground. Called Monkey Hill because the building offset to the left of the zoo used to house monkeys of all sorts.

Thid event has a 3 year history. Its getting better every year.

Im very grateful that Delaware has such great state parks. Honestly, you wouldnt expect it since its such a small state. Just make sure you buy a state park sticker for your vehicle. Theyre not that expensive. Stop trying to buck the system by parking outside on the street or whatever it is you do to scam. These are our parks and we should be happy that Delaware takes such pride in their park system.

We had a family wedding at the Blue Ball Barn at Alapocas State Park. A beautiful setting and venue for a wedding.Beautiful memories.

Anytime visit place. Fun with family m friends. Picnic n more. Love this park

Wilmington Delaware is one of the nicest cities in one of the nicest States. Its a big city in a small states. Kind of like a big fish in a small pond. But its nice and its clean and its beautiful.

I and a couple of colleagues went rappelling at Alapocas Run. This ild quarry is something like 80 to 100 feet from top to bottom. The park has several permanent anchors. My colleagues went first. You know how Mom used to ask. If your friends all jumped off a cliff... Well, now I can say, Yes! I would too!

Beautiful place to spend an afternoon. Ample parking and zoo adjacent!

Really beautiful. They do not have trash cans. Expect to carry out what you carry in.

Great place to take your kids, have lunch, and enjoy the swings!

Went to the Brandywine zoo with my daughter. It was small, but well kept and the animals were in good shape, healthy, and seemed happy enough. Except for the bobcat...but it wasnt a shocker to see him trying to find a way out lol.Pretty cheap entry fee, food court, helpful and informative employees, and a rest/recreation area to take a break.

Attended a summer concert in several of the state parks that were very enjoyable.

I always enjoy a nice walk and a cool breeze at the park. The water is absolutely filthy but the park is clean and beautiful.

Beautiful

This is the main vein of the cities water ways...smack dab in the heart of it where it should be.This place makes you forget youre in the concrete jungle. ️

Very serene

Not very crowded

Beautiful place to let your soul be at peace

Its a great place for family and friends
