I enjoyed walking along the paths in the shade of the numerous tall trees on such a hot day. There were quite a few benches to sit and relax and enjoy the cool air. I do fear though that this park is going to be taken over by blackberry bushes and English Ivy.
Fun park with running water and a sand pit.
Large field for games or picnicking, a swing set, spinning toy, and climbing rock.
And, the rest has paths and natural areas.
No restrooms.

This place didn't have public parking, or at least none that I saw, and I drove in a couple of the cul de sacs to look for other entrances. I didn't feel comfortable parking in front of someone else's home. It's a shame given that there aren't any accessible parks in the west side of town. For that reason, I'm giving it 2 stars.
We love this little park when the water is on in the sand area. As of May 11, the water is off. Nice shady park with a walking path.
This well maintained 6.32-acre neighborhood park is in a beautiful wooded setting, making it peaceful and perfect for lovers of nature! 👍🏼
Blooms and buds are just now starting to surface as we enter into spring, but I can see it is going to look like a little enchanted forest in about a month or so; lush, full, and green! 💚
It started raining while I was here today, but I was still able to find shelter in the more heavily wooded areas, which included tall mature fir trees, as well as a broad variety of trees and native plants.
There are paved trails that encircle the entirety of the park as well as dirt/gravel trails in the wooded areas, a nice size bridge with a small creek that flows through this portion of the park, a small play area in great condition with some unique pieces of play equipment, picnic tables, and benches throughout, entrances from neighborhoods on all sides, and lots of open green spaces.
I definitely recommend this park, and I look forward to seeing it again in mid-May. 😊

The neighbors will hate me for this... The fewer people know about this place the better.
Just finished lunch at a nearby establishment and the dog needed walking, and so did I. So I type in places to walk near me and up pops this sweet little piece of peace just a few blocks away. You'd miss it blinked twice.
Not much parking in the area, like it's not meant to be a destination, but an asset for the people in the neighborhood. It's quiet. It's clean and well groomed. It meanders. It's lush. There are woodland scenes off the path that are like windows into a quieter time and a simpler place. It feels private and secret. All the time I wander, there is someone minding their own business swinging on the swing and I see folks walking off in the distance, following their own thoughts. Nice place for a picnic, or a wedding, or just a quick little walk with the dog.
I love the big stump at the entrance that has been carved into a throne. If I were a kid that would linger in my memory like a favorite flavor. Exactly what tree stumps are good for... for making kids feel like kings or queens in the forest.
But really don't believe a word I say. Don't read this review (I mean, no one reads them anyway). Don't bring a beer and hang out. Don't drop your trash or park in front of people's houses. Let this remain a little pocket forest, a little local secret.

Super fun park for the kids! There is a cool sand pit with diggers and a very neat water feature made of concrete that mimics a creek with a water pump.
