A nice neighborhood park with play equipment, a few well planned play areas, a basketball court, a tennice court, a soccer field, a table for table tennis. Not sure what is is the building as it seems to be closed on weekends and after hours but restrooms are ok and open during the park opening hours. A water fountain outside and water and bags for puppies. The park is dog friendly - dogs on leash. Only wish - The current table tennis table is very basic. Would be nice to upgrade the table. Have a regular net and keep it under a tent to prevent from the weather.

The water is now on for Memorial Day. Much needed for this heat! Lots for the different ages to spend hours including baseball, tennis and basketball. Toddler areas and bathrooms are well maintained and lots of stray toys to keep them busy as well.

This is a nice playground with two play areas. One area is enclosed for smaller kids and the other area is for the older kids. The enclosed play area has a large sand lot. There are plenty of benches and shadey spots to watch your children play or have a picnic. Adjacent is an open field, a basketball court, and tennis courts. There are bathrooms in the recreation center on the grounds. There is free street parking available.

This park was awesome! Loved the fenced-in playground for my twin toddlers. The splash pad was small, but also a good time!
