πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for Westchester County families with children of any age. Toddlers through teens each find something distinct here - pool, playground, mini golf, or trails depending on the season. The winter light festival makes off-season visits worthwhile. Residency check at entry is enforced - bring a driving licence every time.

β€œTibbetts Brook Park in Yonkers, NY is an amazing park with so much to offer, and I always enjoy spending time there. I really appreciate the trails around the park, which are perfect for walking, relaxing, and enjoying the scenery. The playgrounds are great for families, and the huge lake is absolutely beautiful and adds to the peaceful atmosphere. I also love seeing the wildlife throughout the park, which makes every visit feel special. Riding my Hiboy e-scooter through the park is a lot of fun and a great way to explore everything. The mini gym and tennis courts are excellent for staying active, and the waterpark is a fantastic bonus, especially during warmer months. Tibbetts Brook Park truly has something for everyone and is a wonderful place to enjoy the outdoors.”

β€œI really enjoy walking through Tibbetts. The atmosphere very scenic and serene depending on the area you travel. I prefer to find a quiet corner by the lake they have benches among the picturesque trails during the beautiful changes of the Seasons. The park is named for Tibbetts Brook, which in turn is named for George Tibbetts, a Briton who had settled the land in 1668. The park is bordered by the Cross County Parkway to the north, Saw Mill River Parkway to the west, McLean Avenue to the south and Midland Avenue to the East. Tibbetts Brook Park is north of Van Cortlandt Park along South County Trailway, and Tibbetts Brook crosses north-south through the park on its way to the Harlem River.”
