“Great family park, perfect for picnics, barbecues, special events, birthday parties, long walks, dog walks and much much more.. now with the new swimming pool available for summertime, it is the best place to hit up for a nice cool dive. Weekends are always busy parking is scarce and it's a minority base crowd overall. The park is always kept in tiptop shape.”

“This place is awesome! The facilities are clean and the attendants are friendly. The splash pad is so cute and using the pool is free (during certain hours)! I'm so glad to live close by and be able to visit this place regularly.”
